2027-2028 Offseason Random Ramblings

[browntown653]

Wow, I have money to spend for free agency!...unfortunately it's not much, and I need a lot

[Saber]

they win more than 50 games a season by themselves? is that what you two are saying? I dont know....just saying I found it amusing. I'm not complaining about my payroll, I have over 80 million for FA.

By my numbers, you have 40 million for FA. Will that buy 3 starters and a bullpen?

[albbla2000mu]

40 mil this year, 40 mil next year...so yes it will. if I so choose.

FYI guys, this year's FA class is the class of slackers. Several guys, some closer than others, with potential to be pretty good but with ratings not quite there yet. There are some good opportunities for a team who is rebuilding to risk signing one of them, playing them and hoping for development.

I am going to get the last piece or two needed to win a championship. Should have one it all last season. One more run and I have no choice but to rebuild.

This free agent class intrigues the Dodgers, who have $76+ million to spend.

[Kingdom]

And the dismantling of Baltimore begins again.... just can't turn a profit, even with not having a huge team salary and being competitive...

7 year plan?

[Saber]

I like how people have however much to spend on free agents, when we have a 40 million cap anyway.

Ill just wait until next year when the class has much better potential and my 22 million dollars goes off the books.

[DiamondDave]

7 year plan?

Dunno what it is going to take.... but it will certainly take at least 2 years to dismantle all but the young guys and build up the farm

I've decided against any major limitations on offers other than all teams are limited to a max of 40 million dollars of offers being on the table.

You can spend more than 40 mill as long as its not all on the table at once. I think you forget that part of the rule.

[missionhockey21]

What? No, that's what is meant by it. You missed the part right below it.

And if you offered player x 10 million to lower your available total to 30 million, if he signed elsewhere you can offer that 10 million again to someone else, but if he signed with you your total left to offer is 30 million.

[missionhockey21]

You won't be spending $50 million this season in my league.

(Not trying to be a dick, but I don't want you guys confusing everyone else.)

[Porter]

Thanks for the clarification, mission.

Just wanted to make sure i read that right.

[missionhockey21]

No worries. I just could see that been a potential problem if people mis-understood (ie offering more than they could, me catching it and only entering X amount of their Y offers.)
