Subject: 1974 draft: the #1 pick has been made

Although the draft does not begin officially until 8 AM ET tomorrow, the Atlanta Braves have selected Dave Cash with the #1 pick in the 1974 SMILEY draft.
 
The Twins have the next pick (but are not "on the clock" since that doesn't start for about 12 more hours), followed by the Brewers (HAL will be making their selection).
 
--------------------------------
 
For our new owners (and as a refresher course for our veterans), here is how the draft works:
 
The draft order, and all picks that have been made so far, is posted at the website, and I will update that page as picks are made.  I will also try to post updated files after every round.
 
Each owner has 6 hours to make a pick, but the clock stops overnight (eastern time) from about 11 PM ET to 8 AM ET.  You do not need to wait for me to put you "on the clock" to make your pick - once you see that the team in front of you has made their selection, feel free go ahead and announce your pick.
 
If I am available - and I usually am - I will sent a message to the list stating who is on the clock and what the deadline is.
 
If there is ANY chance you won't be around when your turn comes around - and the draft sometimes moves MUCH faster than you might think - send me a list ahead of time.  Otherwise HAL could make your pick, and you generally don't want that to happen.
 
We are often a little lenient on the 6 hour limit (especially in round 1, where we do not want to see HAL do anything).  If you are up after somebody, and their 6 hours have expired, do NOT just go ahead with your pick.  If I don't happen to be near a computer when somebody's time has expired, the person on the clock gets a little extra time.  That's how it works, and we've done just fine that way in the past; our drafts usually go very smoothly.
