I don't mind still having the due dates, but Monday's a holiday in the U.S.

Oops good call. I keep forgetting about that even though I don't have to work haha.

Should we treat Monday as part of the weekend or continue back up on Monday morning, guys? I'm fine with either option. I'm just trying to move the draft along as much as possible.

[Ohio GM]

Let's keep it moving.   Use the list function and we can get this done quicker

After a quick 6 hour sleep, New Jersey has taken it's third pick CF Martik Geboyan.

Kentucky is now on the clock.

Good player, I nearly took him earlier.

Cheers, I wanted Haas the knuckleballer, (picked by Oregon) but Geboyan looks to be a great leadoff hitter and excellent defender.

They pitch slow, but tend to be very durable, can go many innings and have long careers.

That's correct. I sent him an email to let him know. I'll reset the draft clock after we get to 8pm CST today so Ontario will be on the clock until 8:15am CST tomorrow (5/24) morning when we go to 15 minute windows.

Talking about emails, anyone getting draft update emails yet? I'm not.

Matt gave me admin powers on statslab, so I changed a setting on statslab's draft admin page (don't know if it will do any good, but the reply-to field didn't quite make sense to me as it was), but I guess we won't know if it works until the next pick is taken.

Cool thanks Chappy! I thought I had that option enabled but I guess not .

Hey guys,

We made great progress today as we're at Kentucky's 4th round pick (61st overall) currently. Feel free to continue to make your pick if you are up however! We will start the draft timer back up at 8am CST (11 hours 40 minutes) from now on whoever is up at that time. From there we will have a 15 minute draft pick window until the end of the 7th round where it will shrink to 5 minutes per pick from then on.

Be sure to be ready at your time slot of have a full list of players ready in Statslab (plan accordingly so you don't run out of players on your list if you have it set to List Pick). We should be able to get close to or finish up Round 7 by 8pm CST tomorrow.

Thanks guys!

Well, you had the send email function set to 'subscribed', but you also had the reply-to set to 'subscribed' which didn't really make sense to me... so I changed that to 'commissioner'... we'll see if that works.
