Resolving Contested Draft Picks

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.

Jeremy Hellickson (100, P)

Team Cap Left Total Players Rank
Georgetown 45900 1 23
Hennepin County 45900 1 33
El Guettar 45900 1 34
Cincinnati 45853 1 20
Jose Offerman's 45800 1 29
North Pole 44668 1 33

 

Three teams have 45900 remaining.  Tiebreaker #2 - goes to the team with the fewest players in that position category (SP, RP, or hitter).  Georgetown already has a SP, so they are out.  Tiebreaker #3 - team with the fewest signed players (both have 1).  Tiebreaker #4 - Team without a qualifying starter at that position - neither does.  Tiebreaker #5 - rank - and that goes barely to Hennepin County.

 


Buster Posey (100, C)

Team Cap Left Total Players Rank
El Guettar 45900 1 6
Cincinnati 45853 1 26
Hennepin County 45800 2 8
Savin Hill 45798 1 999
Stillwater 45767 1 18
Princeton 45301 1 12

 

To El Guettar based on cap left.

 


Justin Smoak (100, 1B)

Team Cap Left Total Players Rank
El Guettar 45800 2 8
Hennepin County 45800 2 18
Stillwater 45767 1 2
California 45356 1 34
Princeton 45301 1 4
Ingram 45161 1 23

 

It's between El Guettar and Hennepin County again.  Tiebreaker #2 - Hennepin County gets him because they have fewer hitters on their roster so far.

 


Desmond Jennings (100, OF)

Team Cap Left Total Players Rank
Georgetown 45900 1 8
Cincinnati 45853 1 7
El Guettar 45800 2 18
Hennepin County 45700 3 4
American 45097 1 2
North Pole 44668 1 34

 

To Georgetown based on cap left.
