Let’s give us all the incentive to clear the roster space and go fishing in the last round of the 2045 draft. I suppose including picks from rounds 9 and 10 would be in order as well. I’ll check my draft history but I doubt I have anyone worth sharing.

I was swinging blindly on some of my moves that year. Looks like McFadden not only has kept his control issues in check, but it turning out to look like a fairly serviceable LHP which is quite the rarity in this league. Woof.

So not counting the crazy 2041 draft, I have 21 drafts I can see, with 55 picks from the 8th round or later. Six players have ever developed to 100+ SI Two have ever taken the field in Bloomington Zero since 2027 Bloomington avg POT, Rd 8+ 2023-28: 11.6 (rounds 8-10) 2029-39: 10.4 (I feel like user base really blew up beginning in this era) 2040: 10 (1st 8-round draft) 2041: 13.7 (the overloaded draft) 2042-44: 11.6 - since (#8 picks only)

If you take some of that into account, he could have managed a .500 or better record and filled a roster spot. He probably wouldn't have stuck around long enough on my team to do any of that though now. Danged 'ol "continuous improvement" squeezing out the borderline players!
