It's almost midnight in NY now, so I am thinking we won't hear from PhilMatic for several hours.

I've got the proxy.
Please note that we are going to have a 17th and 18th round. These rounds will be for your reserve squad and will not need to meet budget requirements (your first 16 picks must be a valid roster per fantasy MLS rules and salary cap). I'll post more info shortly on the transfer rules thread but basically you will get two chances to add someone to your reserve squad if you wish, in a round 17 and 18. Let's plan on finishing this today or at a minimum tomorrow. I will try to send everyone a PM about the additional two rounds and reserve squads shortly as well.

I have added rounds 17 and 18 to the roster page -- those rounds won't have the salaries added to the total

Who is Gruezo? Another sleeper pick.

So does this new rule of reserves mean that we stockpile players like 10.0 midfielders and switch them out?
I liked last year better. Did better than previous years without the reserves. Top Shelf coughing up Klijestan turned my season around.

On the other hand, we only control the same number of players as last year, and while the reserve list is not budget-restricted, you still have to open budget space to activate those players, and I am not sure whether that will be easy or not. I think the salaries are higher this year. Looking at last year's draft, the Long Beach draft roster had only two players with salaries above 7.5. This year you have six.

I am peppering Hal with texts with the hope of dislodging a pick.

Still a good amount of potentially decent players out there ... Compiling my list for reserve spots and there is plenty to choose from.

I take time off for Election Officer Duty and use today to catch up on all the picks and do some research and all of a sudden we are picking rounds 17 and 18.
I certainly didn't have that in my planning. That's what we did in the other draft league and it totally confused me. I played this draft straight and now we have the extra players.
So, if I understand it right, we are going to be able to select two additional players that we own exclusively in our reserve squad and only have to fit them into the salary restrictions when we add them to our active squads.
So much for using the free agent pool.
