2012 Draft Day Timeline
Okay, boys. Spring Training is in full swing, games will be starting this weekend and we're getting ever closer to Draft Day 2012!
Here is a timeline for the days leading up to Draft Day. As always I suggest reading the Constitution regarding Roster Freeze Day, but if you have any questions, feel free to send me an e-mail.
For this year's timeline, I've tried to wait as long as possible for us to have to make decisions while still giving us enough time to formulate a game plan based on each others keepers and cuts.
Tuesday, March 27th - ROSTER CUTS DUE! 12pm noon is the cutoff. Remember, once you submit the cuts (even if you send me your cuts two days before the deadline) NO TRADES ARE ALLOWED. Once you click "send", that's it. Period. Cuts are due by 12 noon. I will remind you that the sooner I receive everyone's cuts, the sooner I can give you final rosters.
Wednesday, March 28th - ROSTER CUTS ANNOUNCED. In all honesty, I plan on sending out the list and updated Roster Sheet Tuesday night, but in case life gets in the way or there are issues to sort through, I'm giving myself until the 28th to get the list out.
Saturday, March 31st - HARD FREEZE. No more movement between active and reserve list is allowed.
Sunday, April 1st - DRAFT DAY!!! We will start with the Ruffin Privilege at 8am SHARP! We have owners leaving town that afternoon so we have to start on time. That means everyone should arrive between 7am and 7:30 so that we can take care of league business (go over Draft List, take picture, sign the Copperfield Trophy, vote for the EC, clarify any rules, etc.) before 8am. Plan accordingly. Look at Mapquest. E-mail me with direction issues. Buy yourself an alarm clock. Learn how to set the alarm clock. No one should walk in the door after 7:30am.
Keep in mind that the Trade Season is still in session. You can make trades up until the point that you submit your cuts to me. I will be submitting my cuts to the Executive Committee before noon on the 27th.

DRAFT DAY 2012
We are finally locked in on date, time and location for Draft Day 2012!!
Our draft will take place on Sunday, April 1st, 2012 at 8am in the plush conference room of Rich's company. I will be sending you an e-mail with address and detailed directions to the location.
Here are some details. We will have access to a fridge (no telling on how much space will be available so bringing a mini cooler might not be a bad idea) and a microwave oven.
The conference room has a table and very comfortable chairs that seat ten. If no one brought a lap top, there would be enough space to sit comfortably. If everyone (or some) brings a laptop, and papers and books then the space gets a bit tight so think ahead and plan to put some stuff on the ground around you.
There are six outlets. Four at one end of the room, two at the other. We'll power strips and extension cords.
There may or may not be internet access, but we won't use it. If there is a port, it's the building management's, not my company's so we won't have claim to using it.
If you were planning on bringing an assistant GM or co-owner or someone for moral support understand there is room for ten people to co-exist in relative comfort. Anyone else attending WILL NOT be able to sit at the table because there's simply no room. The extra people will have to hover around the perimeter of the table, looking over your shoulder.
While the above paragraph is important, here's the MOST IMPORTANT thing to plan for. Our 8am start is when the Ruffin Privilege will be invoked. So that means we have to take the league photo, vote on the Executive Committee, hand out and review roster and free agents sheets, sign the 2012 Copperfield Trophy and talk about any new business BEFORE 8am. That's a lot of stuff to accomplish. We cannot have people arriving at 7:55am. I would say all the league business should be handled starting at 7:30am at the latest.
It's January 18th. That means you have two and a half months to coordinate GPS or Mapquest to get you to our draft by 7:30am. We have three owners travelling back out of town Sunday evening and one or more could be on tight schedules, so if we are going to draft at a comfortable pace, starting on time is paramount.
7:30am at the latest. Matt, Mike B and I will be there most likely by 7am so anytime after that is fine.

Winter Waivers Complete
With no bids submitted for John Jay, the Winter Waivers have come to a close.
Currently your Executive Committee is reviewing and scouring through the Constitution in the hope of clarifying language and leaving no ambiguity. But in the spirit of 20 eyes are better than six, if you have noticed something in the Constitution that seems confusing, missing or misworded, please forward it to me so we can look into it.
Additionally I am finalizing our draft location and hope to have an announcement on the location and time soon. We have already determined that Sunday, April 1st will be Draft Day.
As owners, the next order of business will be Roster Freeze Day. I will be posting a calendar of events here shortly, so I encourage you all to check back for more details.

Kicking Off The 2012 Trade Season
Opening the 2012 Trade Season, the Candy Colored Clowns have acquired - wait for it - a Cincinnati Red prospect! But in a shocking turn of events they ended up trading a Cincinnati pitcher to get the prospect.
The Candy Colored Clowns send Mike Leake (.01 13+) and Casey Kelly (.05 Mx) to Dem Rebels in exchange for Billy Hamilton (.05 Mx) and the Rebels 11th round pick in the 2012 Rotation Draft.
Rebel Management had all sorts of promotional nights planned: Bobblehead night featuring Billy The Quick, for example. They just couldn't resist shoring up their pitching rotation for the upcoming season.
