Each team will be awarded one ping pong ball using DraftPickLottery.com. This process replaces the old version of using some combination of NFL games, dice, shots of whiskey, and undocumented commissioner fees.
For this year, the process is very straight-forward. As the administrator of the draft lottery, each team will be entered and awarded a weight of "1." The site will then randomly select teams and set the order for the top six selection spots in the upcoming 2013 BRASSball draft.
In the past two seasons, we've seen some rule changes that have had a significant impact on the draft itself, as well as the strategies that managers use to select their future all-stars. I think the biggest change was the increase in the number of amateurs we are allowed to carry on our roster.
Prior to last season, BRASSball teams could only carry seven amateurs. This increased to eight in 2012, which resulted in more amateurs drafted (an obvious change), but also more players not yet affiliated with a major league club. College players such as Mark Appel were drafted early as general managers speculated that these potential first-round draft picks would make the jump to the bigs sooner than a top prospect out of high school.
