Season 4 Team Draft Picks | Season 4 Chump Draft

Team draft picks are made every season. Each team gets one draft pick per season, plus additional picks for retiring players. Open roster spots created by releasing players does not result in additional draft picks.

The annual Chump Draft consists of under-utilized players. Any position player who has less than 101 at-bats, or any pitcher who has less than 31 innnings pitched, during the regular season is placed in the Draft. Players not selected remain with their team. The Draft normally consists of three rounds but is dependent upon number of players eligible. For Season #5, there were three rounds of ten picks each, with a limit of three picks per team. Each team is always guaranteed at least one pick. Final number of picks is determined by consensus amongst participating league commissioners at the time of the draft. Draft order is determined at random.

The Season 5 Contraction Draft was a one-time only draft brought about by massive structural changes in both the Blood Nut and Bug Nut Leagues, which resulted in a high number of players without teams to play on. The draft consisted of three rounds, with three picks per team. The Waiver Wire was created as a result of the draft by reversing the order of the draft picks. The Waiver List will be used during Season 5 to resolve conflicts with free agents, with the first team on the list getting first chance.
