We are asking all members of the league to check in prior to the 2019 draft, which will begin Saturday, August 3 at noon, ET.
Please check in by replying to this thread. Just write "here" or "present" or something along those lines. By checking in, you are letting us know that
a) you are aware the draft begins on Saturday at noon
b) you are ready and able to make picks for your team, and will be checking in regularly to do so
c) you are aware that it is your responsibility to check the "2019 draft picks by team" and "2019 draft order/results" threads to make sure you're not missing any picks that you otherwise should own (if you don't check before the draft you may lose those picks!)
If you fail to check in prior to the draft you will be marked "absent" from the start (in the first round, instead of having 12 hours to pick followed by 12 hours to make up the pick you will have no exclusive window to pick at all. You will simply have 24 hours to make up the pick but the draft will proceed without you). We may also begin the process of looking for a replacement GM, as the league functions best when we have full participation.
If you are unable to put in the requisite time and research for the draft right now due to your current schedule / personal life / whatever but still want to continue your participation in the league, that's fine! Simply let us know that you wish to be placed on "autopick" and we will automatically assign you the highest drafted (real life draft position) remaining signed player available when your pick comes on the clock. You can always ask to be taken off autopick at any time!
I will cross teams off this list once they have checked in:
TEX
PIT
BOS
SF
OAK
NYY - autopick
KC
CHW
CIN
SD
MIL
STL
DET
NYM
MIA - autopick
