    Trot Nixon/Shea Hillenbrand sweepstakes! + other remaining free agents...

    Alright, since there's two premire FAs (in OOTP terms, atleast) left in Shea Hillenbrand and Trot Nixon (more so Nixon, but yeah), we're going to make it fair to sign either one of them instw

    There will be a blind bidding. Feel free to bid on both players if your heart desires. Highest offer wins (individually for each player, of course; no combined bidding on both players). If the team who wins the bid isn't liked by the player, he will then be signed to the team closest to the winning bid whose organazation said player does like.

    So those who are interested in adding Nixon and/or Hillenbrand, PM your offer to me.

    The deadline for Hillenbrand/Nixon offers is 11/22 at 10:00 PM EST

    ================================================== ====

    As for every other available free agent, it's a first come first serve basis. If you like someone, make me an offer and I will sign him to that offer as long as he likes your organazation.

    not liking an organization doesnt come into play in this instance i dont think... theyre just free agents now, so theyll take whatever the high offer is.

    Trot Nixon signed with the Orioles for 6 mil over 1 year
    Shea Hillenbrand signed with the Rockies for 3.9 mil over 1 year


    Those were the two highest bids. There were some bids that were lower in cash per year, but offered more years... but each player only wanted a 1 year contract.

    So there you have it. Spring training sim info coming shortly.
