PrintThe team sheets are finished and the first two leagues have been formed. We're ready to start drafting this afternoon. Whee.
Below 'the jump' I've listed the assignments for the first two leagues. These are comprised exclusively of people who helped out with the player salary and position eligibility information compilation process. If you've signed up and aren't assigned to one of these leagues, don't panic! These won't be the only two we host and you'll only have to wait a day or two to start drafting.
A few referential links before I post the league assignments:
And finally, the league assignments.

Also of note: we've decided on a 40% cutoff for SP/RP eligibility. That is: over 40% of a players' games were starts in 2010 (or his last year if he missed 2010) he's a SP, all others are RP's. This includes the majors and minors. So if a player made 15 starts in 15 minor-league games but 20 relief appearances in 20 games in the majors, he gets a 15/35 = 42.8% = SP.
If you've already signed up, haven't been assigned to a league, and still want to play: post so in the comments section. Also, indicate if you'd be willing to serve as league manager (explained in the earlier threads, which are linked to above). We'll start forming the next leagues in the comments section.

2 quick questions
1. What time this afternoon will the draft(s) start?
2. Is the draft order as listed above, or not determined yet?

1) Around 3:00 PM EST.
2) No, I’ll randomize it before the draft starts.

Draft prep?
Just take ARod with your first round pick and let it ride.

Seems like a sound strategy
I may have to follow it up with Adam Wainwright though.

Going to get my ass kicked...
Since I’m still feeling my away around SABR, but I feel like this will be a great learning opportunity.
I'm going to start working on SP/RP eligibility
There are 19 teams that don’t have that eligibility broken down, so obviously I’m not going to do it all myself. If you update a team, reply to this post.

slots or just after previous pick
if we have time slots (or deadlines for each individual) at least we can know when to have our pick in by. might be hard to keep checking the site every hour to see when we’re up
just after previous pick
I would suggest the members agree to email the person who picks after them to keep it moving. We have a month to get this done, though.
