2012 Draft Order

[Big_E]

be careful or you'll end up with 5 1B's like Big E did a couple seasons ago

It was 3 1B (Ryan Howard, Kevin Youkilis and Prince Fielder [keeper]). Plus David Ortiz, who was only DH eligible.

One time I got stuck in traffic, another time a car hit a telephone pole and knocked out my cable (and internet). In both cases, the autodraft gave me nobody good, and nobody I could trade to get anyone good.

yeah, the way that CBS has their players lined up in their drafting system makes it nearly impossible to get a good draft.

I disagree. I wouldn't autodraft if I didn't have to but you CAN make it work for you if you spend the time and set it up correctly. The only part you lose out on is reading the other people drafting and knowing if you should snatch up a player you thought would go later, or choose a position to fill based on the trending picks.

I *did* set it up correctly when I had to autodraft. I would not have taken Howard first, with Fielder coming in like the 17th round. I also would not have taken Ortiz so high, with him only having DH eligibility.

You have an option to limit the amount of players in 1 position, I think.

Not that I've ever seen...

I could be mistaking it with the ESPN draft. I know for a fact that there is a screen where you can set a limit on how many players you draft at one position. I had to auto draft my ESPN hockey team this year and I remember setting it up.

I'm shocked if CBS doesn't have one. I've never auto drafted on CBS so I don't know.

Yeah they do not have that. At least not for baseball.
