Felix Hernandez (Rd 7 -> Rd 5)

Myers & Machado actually aren't eligible to be kept. Here is a rule from the rules thread. The only reason I remember this & caught this was because I made the rule when I started the league up a few years ago. We wanted to prevent can't miss prospects from being such valuable WW pickups & becoming 15th round keepers.

FAs can be kept for a 15th Round Pick (Escalates for two seasons)
WW Additions to Yahoo (Ex. Top Prospect called up, picked up by person with top priority) CANNOT be kept
WW drops (Player A is drafted in the 10th round, dropped, and picked up by Team 1, Team 1 must give up a 10th round pick to keep him) are kept for the round they were originally drafted

This was what was voted on for players who are kept after being added from the WW.

Gotcha. Since Myers wasn't drafted in last year's draft, I'll assume Yahoo did add him later in the season. HOWEVER, Machado was drafted in the 24th round last year by thejusman1 so according the the rules, any player dropped can be kept by another from that round. Guess I should be thanking you for the improvement in round status.

My Keepers:

Bryce Harper (Rd 25 -> 21)
Manny Machado (Rd 24 -> 20)
Albert Pujols (Rd 1)
Matt Moore (Rd 15 -> 12)
