Huh, you're right.

That's odd. I thought you needed 18 since there are twelve position player "click to draft" slots followed by seven position player "optional" slots, and then six pitcher slots with "click to draft" and seven labelled "optional."

Sorry about that guys. I mean, you still need 12 position players and six pitcher, but it looks like we're picking for seven extra slots instead of two. Now I can load up on dudes from 2005 White Sox I guess.

After we do the initial, say, 18 or so picks, we can shorten the time limit on picks to fill out the benches if you guys would like. I mean, once we've all got the eight main position players we want and the top six or so pitchers we want, getting skipped over probably isn't as big of a deal. That way we can get through the later rounds quicker. It's up to you guys.

I'm surprised no one has taken Whyus McKaius of the South Indiana Garainals.

They should've let you do Sale-Scherzer this afternoon instead of Nobody I-Nobody II tonight.

I heard he's a gritty, hustle-type player. A real fan favorite.
