Resolving Contested Draft Picks

Startup Draft - Winners Circle League

See the Draft Rules for how these players were awarded.  Remember, that all contested players are placed first - so at the beginning, all teams have 46 million in unused salary cap cash - regardless of how many uncontested draft picks they had.

Ten players were selected by 6 teams.

 

First up, Brett Anderson (Salary 1739)

Team Cap Left Total Players Rank
Beer Thirty 46000 0 10
Detroit 46000 0 17
Dang 46000 0 999
Longfellow 45800 1 33
Smallville 45786 1 16
Omaha 45211 1 10

 

Among teams with their full salary cap allocation remaining, Beer Thirty has him ranked highest and gets him.

 


John Axford (1263)

Team Cap Left Total Players Rank
Detroit 46000 0 9
Dang 46000 0 999
Quinn 45900 1 12
Ocean City Maryland 45900 1 13
Horvitz 45900 1 13
Toronto 45041 1 20

 

Detroit has the higher rank and gets him.

 


Jhoulys Chacin (1217)

Team Cap Left Total Players Rank
Dang 46000 0 999
Twomey 45900 1 19
Phlegm 45900 1 22
Elias 45900 1 24
Longfellow 45800 1 17
Toronto 45041 1 4

 

Dang gets him based on salary cap remaining.

 


Buster Posey (1065)

Team Cap Left Total Players Rank
Phlegm 45900 1 1
Quinn 45900 1 2
Longfellow 45800 1 13
Omaha 45211 1 2
Dang 44783 1 999
Detroit 44737 1 1

 

See the draft rules...we go to Tiebreaker #2 to resolve between Phlegm and Quinn and because Phlegm doesn't have a position player and Quinn does, so he's awarded to Phlegm.

 


Pedro Alvarez (739)

Team Cap Left Total Players Rank
Horvitz 45900 1 12
Longfellow 45800 1 15
Omaha 45211 1 4
Dang 44783 1 999
Detroit 44737 1 8
Beer Thirty 44261 1 20

 

Based on salary cap, he goes to Horvitz

 


Michael Pineda (100, P)

Team Cap Left Total Players Rank
Vandalay 45900 1 16
Elias 45900 1 33
Quinn 45900 1 999
Longfellow 45800 1 23
Smallville 45786 1 9
Omaha 45211 1 34

 

In tiebreaker #2, none of the 3 teams with 45900 left in cap room have a starting pitcher.  Tiebreaker #3 (same number of players) and #4 (players at that position already signed) doesn't resolve the tie, so we go to draft rank which puts him on Vandelay

 


J.P. Arencibia (100, C)

Team Cap Left Total Players Rank
Twomey 45900 1 5
Quinn 45900 1 999
Longfellow 45800 1 25
DeGroot 45800 1 999
Hot 45536 1 999
Beer Thirty 44261 1 34

 

It's between Twomay and Quinn...and they both have position players, but neither one has a catcher, so we get to tiebreaker #5, where Twomey gets him based on draft rank.

 


Dustin Ackley (100, 2B, "A")

Team Cap Left Total Players Rank
Vandalay 45800 2 3
Twomey 45800 2 7
DeGroot 45800 1 10
Smallville 45786 1 2
Omaha 45211 1 5
Dang 44783 1 999

 

Three teams have 45800 left in cap room.  Neither Vandalay nor Twomey have a position player, so they advance past tiebreaker #2.  We blow through the next 2 tiebreakers and based on rank, he goes to Vandalay.

 


Tsuyoshi Nishioka (100, 2B, "N")

Team Cap Left Total Players Rank
Quinn 45900 1 999
Twomey 45800 2 37
Longfellow 45800 1 4
Hot 45536 1 999
Omaha 45211 1 35
Dang 44783 1 999

 

To Quinn (salary cap)

 


Bryce Harper (100, OF)

Team Cap Left Total Players Rank
Elias 45900 1 2
Ocean City Maryland 45900 1 23
DeGroot 45800 1 2
Vandalay 45700 3 1
Dang 44783 1 999
Beer Thirty 44261 1 31

 

Because Elias doesn't yet have a position player, that's where he goes based on tiebreaker #2

 


Three players were picked by 5 teams....

 

Jason Heyward (2096)

Team Cap Left Total Players Rank
DeGroot 45800 1 8
Omaha 45211 1 3
Horvitz 45161 2 8
Toronto 45041 1 2
Dang 44783 1 999

 

To DeGroot based on salary cap left.

 


Jarrod Saltalamacchia (247)

Team Cap Left Total Players Rank
Twomey 45800 2 18
Elias 45800 2 25
Toronto 45041 1 12
Dang 44783 1 999
Detroit 44737 1 30

 

2 teams have the same cap room left - from tiebreaker #2, Elias has the fewer number of position players signed and gets him.

 


Mike Trout (100, OF)

Team Cap Left Total Players Rank
Smallville 45786 1 1
Vandalay 45700 3 2
Phlegm 44835 2 23
