If we could see the board even when roster is full and make a decision on cutting someone based on who was available that might help get more late rounders drafted. I haven't seen my board since 3rd round since it is unlikely there would be anyone better than the guys I have rostered.

Why would we ever force other people to stop drafting? I've seen a POT 15 drafted in round 8. If you don't want to draft, just skip the draft. No reason to penalize everyone else.

Up until the waivers freeze it is ALWAYS worth having a free spot open. Because there is always someone worth claiming. I typically don't do my round 8 draft until after the season has ended though, so I can carry 50 through the playoffs.

Its not a big deal if only a few later rounders get drafted. Because there should only really be a few sleepers left at that point anyhow.

I draft all rounds, and I'm not alone. Why should we lose this option?

Also, just right now, my closer (Valentín Cantu) is from round 6th, and I have in my minors even a guy from 8th round (Luis Villanueva).

Not every person uses these boards. But yes, it was posted. Its was several seasons ago - use the search feature.

I was curious to see how he ended up, so I looked it up myself.

8th round POT 15

He did end up dropping to POT 14 during his development, but still a perennial All-Star. Probably would have hit a ton more HRs in a smaller field.

yes, we did
it's been several seasons now that these quirk player are created.

They will hang around as FAs for awhile before retiring.

Yeah Fischer is a fake POT 15s. Winchester was legit.

So the deal with those fake guys is that they are in the wrong position. Like great hitters who are classified as pitchers, or great pitchers who are classified as hitters. You can do stuff like search FA for Pitchers with 12+ hitting to see examples.
