Co-commissioner makes mistake

As you know, I maintain the Traded Draft Pick list, documenting each draft pick that is traded, so that when Zev runs the draft, he can account for all 300 draft picks. I'd like to think I'm pretty good at it, too. I'm rather diligent in checking it when a new trade is made that involves a draft pick (more than once I've found that other owners did not refer to the list before making a trade), and also in updating it after a trade is made.

However, this year, I messed up. I missed a 5th round pick that Brick had traded to, of all teams, my own (in the Pino Pontoni trade). With that non-traded pick, Brick selected OF Miguel Roman.

Fortunately, Fred and I have sorted this out on our own. Fred graciously agreed to trade Roman to me, at the cost of my 6th round pick next season. So, I got the player with the pick I was supposed to have, and Brick gets another draft pick in 2033.
