From the Office of the Commish:
"As we agreed to do before the season, this coming week is when we switch over to a Thursday-to-Wednesday schedule to bring ourselves into line with MLB, whose season began on a Thursday and will end on a Wednesday. The last 11 weeks of our season will begin Thursday and end the following Wednesday. As abhorrent as this is to all us balding graybeard traditionalists, it was forced on us by MLB’s unconscionable break from tradition in deciding the season would end midweek instead of on a Sunday. . . . Our schedule change also means that the last five supplemental drafts will be conducted on Thursdays, beginning with draft No. 8, on the docket for next Thursday July 21."

Trade, Pre-Draft DL Rules
From the Office of the Commish...
"We have a reminder to pass along on the subject of trades –- they are not permitted on draft days. Any trades made leading into a supplemental draft must be completed, and the commissioner’s office notified, by the Sunday night before the draft. . . . And what the heck, as long as we’re sending out notices, here’s another, on the subject of DL moves: When an SBL owner activates a player from his DL, necessitating that he drop someone to create a roster spot at that player’s position, that move must be made no later than Sunday evening before a supplemental draft. That way, the rest of the league can be notified in advance of the draft that the player being dropped will be available in the draft pool."

2010 Draft Day Set
From the office of The Commish:
"Looks like we’re a go for Tuesday March 30 for the 2010 SBL draft. Not everyone has formally RSVP’d, but it’s been a week since our preliminary announcement and no one has said they CAN’T make it, and we’re taking that as a big yes. (If the March 30 date IS a problem, please notify me ASAP.) Start time is 7 p.m. (6 a.m. Wednesday in Abu Dhabi!), at Gregg’s place in Chino Hills as usual."
It will be the 28th installment of the Sun Baseball League Draft.
