The Twins object to this comment. We were forced to pay the posting fee to his Japanese team.

Why are you not ok with it Joey? I just don't think its something that should be allowed. You shouldn't be able to bid $50 mil on a guy for 1-yr then get him at a fraction of that for 3-5 yrs.

I will leave this open thru the weekend then begin to break them up into separate discussions.
So if you have anything else you would like to discuss now is your chance.

- I don't have any problem with bloated one year deals then resigning those players. It's a valid strategy imo. Not to call anyone out but this is just one of the biggest examples. I am not okay with say Shohei Ohtani (LAA) $60,000,000 (2019) one year deal then being able to be re-signed for a fraction of that. I agree. What about a cap on a single transaction? Say 20M per year? If more than 1 team bids the max, then the lower team in the standings from the previous year would win the bid. It probably wouldn't affect me either way as I'm too big of a cheapskate to bid 20M on 1 player.

I would suggest that the tie breaker work like a waiver wire order with initial tie breaker in inverse season record order. Team dropping to the end of the tie breaker order after winning a FA tie breaker. That would assure one team doesn’t win every tie. The order resets every year before free agency.

I’d also be fine if we just let it be. I think the Ohtani situation was unique and not likely to repeat very often. Why make rules for rare events ?!?!

If only that was true 2018: Garrett Richards - 1-Yr @ $17 MIL Todd Frazier - 1-Yr @ $16.7 MIL Kenley Jansen - 1-Yr @ $25 MIL Believe only Jansen was re-signed. 2019: Shohei Ohtani - 1-Yr @ $60 MIL Sonny Gray - 1-Yr @ $15.5 MIL Wil Myers - 1-Yr @ $23 MIL Yusei Kikuchi - 1-Yr @ $15 MIL I would say great chance all 4 get re-signed.

Will start to put up different discussions once our WS concludes so if you have any last minute stuff you want discussed this is your chance.

We might have to in the future figure out what to do about guys who sign 1 or 2 yrs deals here then come up for re-signs without 3-yrs of data/fantrax scores. Its unfair to try and put something in now for Othani but its probably something we should have thought more about when we came up with this process but its hard to include everything initially.
Same goes for guys who are 2-way players and how to handle them.

I think a suggestion would be in regards to the FYPD. There ought to be a maximum number of players from one organization that get auto-assigned. Not drafted. But assigned when a team doesn’t make their selection.

But assigned when a team doesn’t make their selection. Assigned players are all determined by who is the highest drafted player available who has not been picked to that point. If they all happen to come from one team that is just bad luck more than anything else. It's not something that is not up for discussion, but I don't think it's ever an intentional thing done when picking players

As we wrap up 2020 and look to 2021 this is your chance to help us make sure the rules are clear and well defined. If you have noticed anything unclear or that seems to be missing please let us know.
As well as anything that we should look at changing or adding as well.
Thx
