2019 FA Period 3: Now - Wednesday 9/17 10AM EDT

[Providence A's]

The third FA period is now open and ends on Wednesday 9/17 at 10AM EDT. Offers sent after the deadline will be ignored.

All periods will be for 6 days and there will be 2 more after this one. I will PM you if player X won't listen to offers from you for whatever reason. Keep in mind that you cannot spend more money than what you have available for free agents on your financial report.

I have no more offers and will not be making anymore offers for Philadelphia.

Here are the FA rules:

Free Agency Rules

These rules are only in place to keep things moving and to avoid too many expensive contracts. We often complain about the real-life deals GMs make, so this shouldn't be a problem. Complaining will be ignored.

1. Each team can spend up to a max of 45 million dollars in one setting (You can never spend more than your available FA money). Pretty much, if you offer 45 million in contracts during the first round and either everyone rejects your deals, or you sign some and lose some, you may once again spend up to your limit in the following round. Length of contract does not matter.

Example:
Oakland offers 45 million to a group of players in round one.
20 of that remains on the table, Oakland can spend up to 25 million in round 2.

For example they offer:

Eric Chavez 9 million
Huston Street 9 million
Tim Wakefield 2 million
Todd Helton 25 million

Let's say Chavez, Street, and Wakefield like their offers and will consider them, but they don't sign right away. Helton flat out rejects Oakland. Oakland would be able to offer up to 25 million on other free agents in the next round. He will be able to offer more when the other three players either sign elsewhere or sign with Oakland.


2. Each team is limited to only one 14+ million dollar per year offer throughout the entire free agent period. If that player signs elsewhere, you may again offer a 14+ million deal. Length of contract does not matter.

Example:
Texas offers Roy Oswalt 15.9 million per. Oswalt signs. Texas may not offer 14+ million to another player.

3. Each team, per round, may offer only two MLC deals. This is one of SBSL's old rules.

4. There will be no rules regarding trading players you sign. The TC, however, will be watching such trades carefully.


It's simple math guys, I trust you will follow the rules or at least try to.
If you violate the rules, you will lose any player(s) that you ended up signing while breaking rules.

Note
Please do not send any changes now. Thank you. Promotions and demotions will be allowed for the ST sim and lineups/rotations will be allowed after the ST sim.

The following players were released from Seattle if anyone is interested in them (they won't show up as FAs until the next upload since he just released them):

MR Kristian Bell
MR Harry Laplant
CA Jarrod Saltamcchia
2B Stephen Jones

edit: actually, I am uploading the site again because I noticed a couple things didn't fully upload last night so the players Seattle released will be in the FA pool.

Can we knock out the a and call the pitcher Kristin Bell?
