The below is a must in order for your pick to count

Your drafted players contract will look like this - Kyle Schwarber (0/3)pp - $300k
I will not add a player to your Fantrax Roster until he is rostered on Pro Boards
Now while the draft does not officially start until 4pm EST on the 8th. The MLB deadline for a player to sign is 5pm EST on the 6th, tonight, teams WILL BE allowed to start picking at this time. Though there will be no clock until the official start of draft.
