Pat, are you not related to Rich, or do you guys just have the same name?
If you are related, can't you just call him and ask "what's up"?
I agree with you that you should get to keep him. I think what Rich has done is try to use our IBC rules without addressing exactly what we had to do in that league. In the IBC Saito was signed before we clarified the rule, so he got to stay with his team.
In the IBC, Saito was allowed to be signed, but after the rule change, if a Japanese player were to sign in 2007, he would not be available till the 2008 draft.

You guys figure it out and let me know...
If Saito wasn't eligible, I gave an alternative...Of coarse this would mean redrafting all the players from my pick forward.
A simple rule of thumb may be that if a player wasn't available to be drafted in the previous years draft, then he is eligible for the next draft. Since we didn't have a new player draft last season, I'm not sure how this is going to be handled.

Rich replied to an email I sent him this morning, on the clock teams with GMs shall be treated the same as open teams and have the next available player from the MLB assigned to their team.
With that, Cincy was skipped at #19 and are now assigned Kyle Drabek.
Houston was not on the clock following the Giants pick, that was my mistake. After the Cubs selection, Cleveland is now on the clock.

At least I picked him before you made your selection Brandon. So it's not like I stole him from you.
I made my intentions clear to either select Saito or Akinori Iwamura.

We're first cousins but more like brothers. He's tough to get a hold of with 3 sons and one being a newborn. Give me a ring Rich, when you get a chance, I've been trying to call you on your cell for a couple of weeks now.
