3L News: Draft Pool Revealed
Tuesday, December 28th, 2027
For the entrants in this year's rookie draft, released today by the league, the possibilities are endless. Some will immediately seize their opportunity to play in the bigs with a venom, doggedly working their way up through the system to arrive on the pro circuit in three to five years, if they are lucky. Others will struggle, have their hopes dashed, reborn and dashed again, all the while not fully giving up on the dream. Still others will take each day as it comes, while not losing sight of the end-game. They will figure it out, quietly work their way into the professional ranks and have solid, if not spectacular careers in Menard's Third League. At any rate, teams now can scout the draft pool for the next 30 days.

The Transactions page also gets a new section dedicated to the pool and will be available for 65 days prior to draft day.

The top players available (in no particular order) seem to be:
1. Michael Wilson, 21 year-old RHP out of college.
2. Armando Romano, 19 year-old RHP out of high-school.
3. Jack Robertson, 19 year-old RHP out of high-school.
4. Tim Stinson, 19 year-old C out of high-school.
5. Ben Scott, 18 year-old RHP out of high-school.
6. Daniel Hart, 19 year-old RHP out of high-school.
7. Claudio García, 22 year-old CF out of college.
8. Denis Higgins, 23 year-old SS out of college.
9. Juan Tellado, 19 year-old SS out of high-school.
10. Billy Dotson, 19 year-old SS out of high-school.

You can find the draft pool in the league transactions screen (league menu).
