If you do not have the draft pick to keep that player, you may keep that player for +1 earlier round. If you do not have the earlier draft pick, it takes the next earliest round. For example, John Doe is a 6th rder, but you traded your 6th and 5th pick, John Doe costs you a 4th rder.
You may keep a MAX of 2 players per round.

If you trade for a player, his keeper cost is the round he was drafted in.
If you pick up a player from FA who was drafted, his keeper cost is the round he was drafted in.
If you pick up a player from FA who was NOT drafted, his keeper cost is the last drafting round.
A max of 3 FA's who were not drafted may be kept per year.
Keepers can be kept for a max of 5 years

I was under the impression they could be kept as 1st rounders for 5 years.





edit - damn, didnt realize we had to keep a pitcher. well that changes things

I'm under this impression too. As long as you have the DPs for everyone you're keeping. And a max of 2 guys of each round too.

This is all I found about keeping 1st rders, but I don't see why there would be a cap on keeping them, or what that would be?

Took a closer look at who I'm going to likely be keeping and I'm going to have to let one of these guys go, so they are available for the right offer. Cost next year is in brackets.

Sale (4)
Cueto (12)
Dozier (23)

bumping to get people back. let me know ASAP if you're not going to be in for whatever reason.

also, a reminder of our keeper rules

now the fun stuff, Keeper rules:
5 keepers kept, at least 1 hitter and 1 pitcher
Keeper cost: The 1st year a player is kept they cost the round they were drafted in.
2nd year: +1 round earlier
3rd year: +3 rounds earlier
4th year: +6 rounds earlier
5th year: +10 rounds earlier
If you do not have the draft pick to keep that player, you may keep that player for +1 earlier round. If you do not have the earlier draft pick, it takes the next earliest round. For example, John Doe is a 6th rder, but you traded your 6th and 5th pick, John Doe costs you a 4th rder.
You may keep a MAX of 2 players per round.

If you trade for a player, his keeper cost is the round he was drafted in.
If you pick up a player from FA who was drafted, his keeper cost is the round he was drafted in.
If you pick up a player from FA who was NOT drafted, his keeper cost is the last drafting round.
A max of 3 FA's who were not drafted may be kept per year.
Keepers can be kept for a max of 5 years

Glad baseball season is on its way, can't wait.

Not sure why I thought we were going with 9 keepers, but that definitely makes for a lot of tough decisions.
