HOU
15 Players: Bagwell Piazza Canseco Biggio Burnitz Guillen Hampton Reynolds Kile Oswalt Wagner Kile Carrasco (could be 97 pick, dunno) O'Neill Swindell
1998 Picks Ryan Watkins etc.
1997 Picks Gonzalez etc.
The best player I would give up is like Bill Spiers or Derek Bell. And then maybe lose a meddling reliever or 2.5 spect.
Now my team is not terribly deep, probably par for the course.

Fucking commish who doesn't take input from his members before making a rule. How much experience do you have commishing and running an expansion draft? I went to the most experienced guy in the league and used his exact model from the really successfully expansion draft he used in a league that has been running for at least 10 real life years. You can go ahead and shut the fuck up now. Commishing an expansion draft....none. Running an expansion draft: TWO TIMES. YOU DON"T KNOW ME, SO YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP!

The point is to bring two competitive teams into the league. Not two teams that will take 5-7 years to rebuild. Weird you just described the real Rays And Diamondbacks spent a shitload in FA to win right The diamondbacks built their franchise around that shitty 1B There's clearly two different draft strategies. If you look at the real draft, the Rays took younger players and the Dbacks took older, more developed players.

for the guys posting 1997 and 1998, they dont matter, since they are currently on your roster and will be eligible by then, you arent just gonna have them magically disappear anytime soon. 2000 and 2001 wont be eligible, so that will help

OVERVIEW: - The league will expand to 28 teams in the offseason prior to 1993, with the addition of the Florida Marlins and the Colorado Rockies. - The teams will have the top 2 picks in each round of the 1992 Amateur Draft. - The draft will take place during the offseason of 1992 before Free Agency.
ELIGIBLE PLAYERS: - All players not drafted in our previous 3 Ammy Drafts are eligible (i.e. the 1991, 1992 and 1993 drafts).
PROTECTED PLAYERS: - From the eligible list, each major league team will protect 15 players prior to Free Agency. - As a result, each team must send by e-mail a list of 23 protected players because of the stipulations below.
EXPANSION DRAFT RULES: - The Expansion Draft will last 3 rounds. - A coin flip will determine the order of the draft. The winner may choose the 1st and 4th picks, or the 2nd and 3rd picks in the first round. - After the first four picks, the Marlins and Rockies will alternate selections for the rest of the draft. - A total of 26 players will be selected in the first round from each major league team. Each expansion team will have 13 players. - Prior to the second round, each team will protect 3 additional players. - The second round will proceed in the same manner as the first, with each team losing an additional player. - At the conclusion of the second round, each expansion team will have 26 players. - Prior to the third round, each team will again protect 3 additional players. - During the third round, the top nine American League teams and the top nine National League teams by standings will lose an additional player, giving each expansion team 35 total players

Id protect Jeter, Giambi, Everett, Dye, TVP, Pavano, Peralta from my majors, Ortiz, Chavez, Cruz, Wilkerson Mulder Zambrano Ohka, then you toss my 1999 first round 2nd round etc picks in, and suddenly I have issues...plus I plan on signing players with the 30-40 million I have to spend in FA...thats a big problem

This is the same exact way that I'm doing it and Chris did it. This is comical.

That number included the draft picks, which you're automatically protected here from per my description.

only difference is an additional draft year exemption. 15 is same. protecting 3 (6 total) players is less than proposed 5 (10 total) is a big difference.
I think the key is do we add the infamous 1999 to the exemptions? I'd say that would be a good compromise and call it a day. Keep it at 15.

First, let me say I LOVE EXPANSION!
More active teams, the better!
Glad we are doing this!
Protecting 15 players is fine.
I just didn't like, at first glance, seeing 2 draft years instead of three, which pretty much jumps up at least 2 guys in a regular draft year into your protected 15. In that way, you are just having to protect more young guys than older guys.
Also, only pulling back 3 at a time makes a big difference instead of 5. I actually think it will be interesting to see how it works. I don't think I was around GABL during expansion, I can live with it.

It's not going to cripple you.
