[IBL] Newsletter 11-12-2015

[Brent Cunningham]

All, I've volunteered to oversee the draft order lottery.  We'll schedule
it for 8:30 pm central time next Thursday, November 19th.

All are welcome to come and test their rollbot luck for their own team.
Draft pick order in each tier will be determined by highest to lowest roll,
so root for those pitcher card 6-4-3 double plays when you roll!

Example first tier:

TRI - roll result is 473
BAL - roll result is 007
HAV - roll result is 893
SFP - roll result is 248
EDG - roll result is 611

The first tier draft order in this example would be:   1. HAV   2. EDG  3.
TRI  4. SFP  5. BAL

Then we'd all get a funny email from Doug about how I jinxed him and he
"had to settle for" Francisco Lindor.

Hope to see you all there!
