2014 FGM Entry Draft

[shooter47]

2014 FGM Entry Draft

The annual entry draft starts Monday, September 22nd at Noon EST.  Each GM will be given a maximum of eight hours to make their pick.  Once you make your pick, the eight hour clock starts for the next GM.  If you do not pick within that time frame then the following will happen.

If you had supplied the EC with a pre-rankings list, then the best available signed player from such a list will be taken.  If no such list is available then the pre-draft ranking list of signed players that is used for the draft will determine which player is taken by your team.  At this point, you will be placed on an auto-draft list until you request to be off of such list.

Trading Draft Picks

Trading of draft picks is not allowed.

Entry Draft Contracts
Players drafted in the FGM entry draft will be given Prospect Contracts, (P-n/a), and can be placed on a teams EDR roster or 40 man roster.

How Draft Will Be Conducted

If a team is not present for the draft / times out, and did not provide a proxy pick, they'll be awarded the next highest ranked signed player, and then placed on auto-draft.

The players ranking list is of the same order of Baseball America followed by the actual draft order.
Entry Draft eligible players will consist of players who have been drafted and signed in the real life MLB Entry Draft.

The Franchise GM Entry Draft will last 10 rounds, but teams are not required to make picks if they do not wish to make room on their EDR

Only players drafted and signed in the MLB Entry Draft will be eligible for the Franchise GM Entry Draft - foreign players and unprotected prospects will be handled via free agency (however foreign players may warrant consideration for an additional rules).

BA Rankings

http://www.baseballamerica.com/draft-preview/?

Be aware that not all 500 players on this list are draft eligible as some are already owned in FGM and some players did not sign with the team that drafted them.

The 2014 FGM Draft List (http://www.profsl.com/smf/index.php?topic=171005.0) has had unsigned, undrafted and already owned players removed.

[Tarheels55]

Chooses 1st in the draft

Carlos Rodon LHP North Carolina State N.C. 1

[Brent]

Angels select: Kyle Schwarber C/OF CHC

[rcankosy]

Why aren't we awarding the highest ranked players for the teams that have timed out?

[BHows]

I was waiting for someone to Auto Pick for ATL. Contacted shooter who approved.
San Diego on the clock until 4:31A Eastern. He will be contacted.

[shooter47]

Why aren't we awarding the highest ranked players for the teams that have timed out?

ATL auto picked SP Tyler Kolek. Bhows didn't make a formal post for this auto pick. LAA has picked. SD is now OTC

[rcankosy]

The Nats should have had Kolek auto-picked for them yesterday.  The Nats did not pick until 11:40 pm, and the clock ran out at 8pm.

[shooter47]

The Nats should have had Kolek auto-picked for them yesterday.  The Nats did not pick until 11:40 pm, and the clock ran out at 8pm.

The beginning of the draft was delayed because I was weighing the need to hold the draft up because some teams need new GM's. Since the Twins spot was filled yesterday afternoon this left only COL left. Worst case we will need to auto pick their first round pick.

I did not inform Bhows that the draft was starting and that he had authority to make autopicks for teams that did not pick during their draft clock.

I have discussed the draft with Bhows tonight and we are on the same page now. The draft will remain on schedule from here on out.

I have discussed the draft with Bhows tonight and we are on the same page now. The draft will remain on schedule from here on out.

1.  Why would you have to inform Bhows that the draft was starting when the start date was clearly marked on the FGM site and we all received emails that the draft was scheduled for 9/22 at noon?

2.  Why would Bhows need authority to enforce rules clearly stated on the FGM site if he was assisting in the coordination of the draft?

I think you should switch the picks for the Nats and the Braves to reflect the BA rankings if no selections were sent to the EC since both teams clearly timed out.
