Resolving Contested Draft Picks

First up, Matt Wieters (Salary 644)

Death Valley is the only team listed with their full cap room remaining.

Neftali Feliz (200)

WV gets him based on salary cap.

Kyle Drabek (100)

OK - 6 teams have the same salary cap allocation left (first tiebreaker).  Tiebreaker #2 - goes to the team with the fewest players in that position category (SP, RP, or hitter).  Tammany Hall was the only team to get a starting pitcher last time - the others advance.  Tiebreaker #3 - team with the fewest signed players (all have 1).  Tiebreaker #4 - Team without a qualifying starter at that position - none does.  Tiebreaker #5 - rank - and that goes to California.

Three players were selected by 6 teams.

Drew Stubbs (Salary 228)

Cincinnati gets their first player.

Wade Davis (202)

5 teams have the same salary cap allocation left (first tiebreaker).  Tiebreaker #2 - goes to the team with the fewest players in that position category (SP, RP, or hitter).  Detroit and Tammany Hall already have starting pitchers - the others advance.  Tiebreaker #3 - team with the fewest signed players (all have 1).  Tiebreaker #4 - Team without a qualifying starter at that position - none does.  Tiebreaker #5 - rank - and Astoria gets him based on that.

Chris Carter (100)

4 teams have the same salary cap allocation left (first tiebreaker).  Tiebreaker #2 - goes to the team with the fewest players in that position category (SP, RP, or hitter).  Tammany Hall is the only team of the four without a hitter yet.

Jacob Peavy (Salary 3129)

Goes to Menomonie based on cap room.

Joey Votto (2200)

Baldwin due to salary cap.

Tommy Hanson (1332)

Kansas and Hampton, VA have the same cap room left.  Neither of them has a pitcher, both teams have only 1 player, neither has a starter at this position, so in Tiebreaker #5 - rank - he goes to Kansas.

Gordon Beckham (903)

Ralston and Hampton, VA have the same cap room left.  Both of them have a hitter, both teams have only 1 player, neither has a starter at this position, and Ralston gets him based on the 5th tiebreaker, draft rank.

Billy Wagner (869)

With so many players with salary 100 going first, I don't think we've ever had this many instances of cycling through all the tiebreakers.  Detroit and Hampton, VA are in this one.  Tiebreaker #2 - goes to the team with the fewest players in that position category (SP, RP, or hitter).  Neither has a reliever yet.  Tiebreaker #3 - team with the fewest signed players (both have 1).  Tiebreaker #4 - Team without a qualifying starter at that position - neither does.  Tiebreaker #5 - rank - and Detroit gets him based on that.

Mat Latos (344)

Dunder Mifflin gets him based on salary cap

Casey Kelly (100, P - I haven't yet switched him to pitcher in the player list)

Hampton, VA (cap room)

Brett Wallace (100, 3B)

Tammany Hall based on cash remaining.

Austin Jackson (100, OF)

Mount Rushmore
