Question About Drafting

[kohut]

Is there any chance manual drafting could be implimented into retail version of Baseball Mogul???

Id love to do my own drafting with the computer teams drafting for their teams similar to the one done in NHL 2001.

I would love to see this too, my only concern is that it may take a while to complete a draft. Do you realize how long it would take for just one round of drafting to be completed online? Lets say you give everyone 2 minutes to make their choice, that's an hour each round. Plus it never seems to be the case that more than 4 or 5 people in a league are online at once anyways, so most of the drafting would have to be done by the computer.

IO know I meant that for the retail version.

What do guys mean by drafting? As in like college/ high school draft?

I havent finished a season yet so I dont know what to expect.

Could you guys tell me what comes up once the season is over. Like fre agency, retirement (do they tell you who retired?), and anything else of importance.

Im in a Fatsim league and was also wondering how fast does the offseason go by in them. Offseason is tomorrow btw haha.

The problem with this is that I think in how Clay determines the rookies. If I understand his explanation correctly, two factors are involved: 1) it represents a team with weaker record being afforded higher draft positions and thus having more talented players available to them - my guess is this is how he's allowing a smaller market team that's unable to spend a lot on Farm System to have good players available to them and 2) it representing the various development stages in lower minor leagues [rookie, A, AA] as well as some player transactions in the lower leagues - I'd guess this is how he's accounting for teams that are spending quite a bit on Farm System to benefit from their expense.
