Dahlonega, GA, January 26, 2004
Gentlemen.  Here I am, on a day when ice has shut down local schools, with the Super Bowl coming up this weekend and my favorite NBA team looking like it will actually contend for the playoffs, but my thoughts are mainly about the baseball season., so I decided to take the time to update the web pages.

As per our e-mail discussions, the following dates have been set.

March 19 --  deadline for submitting freeze lists
March 27 -- online completion of draft

As a reminder, we voted in one significant rule change after last season. We are now counting runs scored as 2 points instead of one, and batting strikeouts will now count as -1 point. 

The most significant changes in MLB this offseason are shown below.
