THIS has me very interested (and quite geeked).
My McGwire entered at 21.
My Guidry entered at
24.
Both of them signed with the team that first drafted them.
Banks has not entered, yet.
I really like the idea that there is some randomness in the random debut feature as to when the players are chosen to randomly debut actually debut (in regards to their age).
I have never seen any documentation or forum discussion from the team mentioning this. Nonetheless, I find this being a cool feature. If Ichiro usually debuts around 27, but can debut at, say, 20....THAT is very cool! Just checked, he came into the draft at age 26 for my current league.
