Free agent pool and Draft pool

hefalumps · 11-21-2004, 12:36 PM

Was looking at this today, and was curious how these pools are kept separate.

I'm assuming if you go to the "Edit Free Agents" screen, you can see your FAs as well as those players in the ammy draft. Is there an easy way to tell which ones are which? I guess you can just go to the FA screen and if the player isn't listed there, he's in the Ammy draft. Is there any other way?

Also, what makes a player eligible for the ammy draft? Is it just the players that are generated specifically for that purpose?

Thanks to anyone who can clear this up for me!

Players generated should have a blank history (but once in a while they'll end up with a retired player's history), and it's supposed to be just players generated for the draft that are in the draft pool (and as long as you aren't still running with v6.10, that's how it'll work).

Thanks!

I read about 6.10 having minor league FAs with no history in the draft. Glad that's fixed. So it SHOULD be generated players with no history are in the draft - no one else. Got it.
