WhiteWonder 2,645 Posted February 15 With Mora in it sounds like we are at 12 and just waiting on Burt to decide if he has enough time this year. We didn't roll bones until early march last year anyway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm showing we started bone-rollage almost exactly a year ago, February 19. Probably wouldn't hurt to roll them now and then have a nice gap between that and the start of the draft. But we are a well-oiled machine, so either way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had actually scrolled all the way to the bottom of page 1, thinking we must have had a decent amount of draft thread posts, so I was looking at the 2023 bone rolling which was March 4th that year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lambert58 71 Posted February 21 We should probably roll quickly. Let’s get the draft threads up so we can start adding exclusives. I know the Cubs/Dodgers start early in Japan this year. I’m not sure how the start date compares to years past. ROLL DEM BONES!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Mora 33 Posted February 21 I'm good to start rolling and prepping for the draft. It's always a fine line between starting too early (preseason injuries and FAs) and starting too late (crunch time prior to season start), but the past few years we've done a great job keeping the draft moving quickly.

lambert58 71 Posted February 21 I have been thinking that I was a little hasty wanting to get started. Feel free to invalidate the current rolls and start later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suppose once the round 1/2 thread is created people can make picks if they wish but we usually have a starting date so no one feels obligated to pick before hand and to lessen injury risk just a tad.

WhiteWonder 2,645 Posted February 24 Last year we started picks on 2/24 and we had 29 days in Feb. We began the supplemental on 3/7 and finished on 3/12 18 day process. We should probably have a hard start of Wednesday 2/26 to ensure some breathing room with the March 18th game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
