MLB: Throwback 2010 Rookie Draft Update

WillBhere and The Sheik have decided to shake things up for the upcoming 2010 Rookie Free Agent Draft. The purpose of the draft is to improve those teams at the bottom. Due to the fact that we use all 30 MLB teams, the Rookie crop for our draft every year is minimal. Only those franchises who have a pipeline of imports are improving and the franchises with little or no imports have few options to get better. With that in mind, we are introducing a 45 player supplemental draft class that in comprised of Nippon Professional Baseball players from the 2010 season. These players will all progress and have the ability to change to future seasons just like any other players in the league. Any NPB player that played on an MLB team in any future seasons was not eligible for this list. Some of the players in the pool played some in the MLB, but not enough to meet import standards. Each team will be able to draft a player, with the bottom 15 teams having a shot at 2 players from this pool. More details on the draft process itself will come at a future date. Any questions regarding this should be directed to Sheikyerboudi.
