Phase Two

Phase Two Rules

We need to run Phase Two drafts until all teams have a legal roster.  To help you determine what your team needs, here's what each team is lacking:

*Positions must be filled in the startup draft by the Primary Position listed for players.

Notes: This chart refers to meeting the roster minimum requirements and may mean that minor leaguers are being used to qualify you at certain positions. There is also the strong possibility that a player with eligibility at multiple positions is counting at more than one position.  This is just a rough roster check - Please check your own roster to be sure.  You'll get a chance later on through free agency to make sure you have a valid lineup.  Since you can put pitchers in any spot regardless of "SP" or "RP" designation, we're merely counting pitchers, not determining whether or not you have the right mix of starters and relievers.

You may continue to draft as long as you have roster room and cash to spend.  You do not have to stop once you've reached a legal roster.
