As far as the draft, I need so much it was nice to be able to draft guys with high ceilings and work on hopeful development. Could have a leadoff hitter and 4 hitter right there.
I had a real hard time deciding between Thomas and Chandler.  Campbell was a close 3rd for me.  Really nice to have two top picks like you did!

I caught a break with your decision. One position with some decent quality and depth that I have is catcher. Really worked out well for both of us. Its hard to take over someone else's team and change it to your vision but this definitely helped the rebuilding process a lot. My goal is to compete of course but see the rebuild as long term so I can do it right even if it means a year or two of struggles. This goes a long way to putting talent in the system.

I am looking to trade these 2 picks but I do leave for work in an hour. If I can't make a deal by then I will turn my list pick on let my next 2 picks be made while I am at work.

I know I'm up but I keep getting an error saying I am not team 8 and need to log in as commissioner. 

I'm heading to bed but will try again in the morning.

If you get an error in Statslab after making your pick, it is a false error. It happens after a string of auto/list picks. Give it a moment and go back to the draft results to confirm the pick went through. Sorry guys!

Idaho just messaged me that he'll be online at 5pm CT to make his pick for those wondering. Thanks!

I am updating my game and then will do my cross checking between the game and stats lab and make my pick unless someone else wants it. I'd gladly trade it

We'll have a 90 minute draft slot timer through the 6th Round and then a 60 minute draft timer for the reminder of the draft (7th and 8th Rounds). Plan accordingly please!
