With the World Series closed out, and OJW having clinched the 16th overall selection, the base draft order for the 2010 Rookie / FA Draft can now be formally announced.
1. GRK
2. LVI
3. PCM
4. TRY
5. NYK
6. ILL
7. DFW
8. LCC
9. GCG
10. HHA
11. MSU
12. SPR
13. VFS
14. NJT
15. SPL
16. OJW
Overusage played a significant role in re-ordering the draft. GCG's 66 points of overusage (Brian Shouse - 7, Brad Ziegler - 15, Steven Shell - 27, Joe Nelson - 17) dropped them from 6th to 9th in the order. LCC's 8 points of overusage (Takashi Saito - 7, Jose Valverde - 1) were enough to drop them .001 behind DFW in adjusted winning percentage, so they dropped 1 slot.
Of the 1st round playoff losers, MSU picks ahead of SPR by virtue of a lower regular season winning percentage.
Similarly, VFS edges out NJT among the LCS losers, and will select 13th.
As always, the base draft order is irrespective of trades, and does not apply to rounds 3 and 4 of the Rookie / FA Draft, as draft order for those rounds is governed by FA Money.

The Chows are fortunate that they acquired DFWs number one along with LCCs. Otherwise that .001 would have made the Tulo trade even more painful!
Good luck to everone in the draft.
