0 Subject: Baseball Draft Forum ?

Just a suggestion, seems several leagues are using the forum as a drafting headquarters. This causes the baseball forum to move to the top, even when there's no new strategy tips there.

Would it be feasible to add a forum for strictly baseball drafts, that those of us not participating could then ignore?

How about just a general draft forum? Usually not too much overlap in the seasons anyway. Just my opinion...

This is a great idea.

The only counterpoint is that these drafts will soon be over and these threads will vanish. During the season this will be moot. As a matter of fact, I figure all of these drafts will be completed by the 15th or so.

...FWIW

Maybe general draft AND standings forum, then.

Division specific standings are also a great annoyance to those who could care less about this weeks' "As the Belly's Boil Turns."

Well, Billiruben, between you & the Beezer, you led me to the answer.

What if we said, drafts should take place in the Standings forum? Standings forum is generally inactive during drafting times, right?

KevinL, I think you've nailed it.

Good idea. Of course, it's a little late for baseball.

How can we remember to pass the word prior to football draft activity? Although the standings forum is certainly inactive during preseason, a separate draft forum might be more likely to get used for this purpose.

I am not sure it is to late for baseball, guru.
The updated standings for specific leagues and
divisions will likely gravitate towards the
general baseball forum, rather than the more
appropriate (imo) standings forum.

At least that's what happened last year, and
appears to be the norm in hoops.

Maybe a gentle nudge towards increased use of the
standings forum from you would do the trick.
