FA Final Round: ENDS 2/27 at 9:30 EST... bumping this up a little.

[nick]

Sorry I didn't get the site uploaded lastnight. My house has been battling the flu all week and I've fallen victim to it.

The site is almost done uploading.

This will be the final round. Then we'll have a one day scrap round, and a first-come first-serve period that will take place while spring training is being setup.

I'm aiming to have opening day kick off Monday, honestly. Sunday would be nice, but I'm thinking spring training Saturday, sim Monday or Tuesday. I'll see how it goes.

Good luck guys.

Just checked the site, and let me just say I'm scared. This was my message from Bay:

Date: Tuesday, 2/21/2010
Subject: Contract offer
FYI- Boston has offered me a better contract!
They offer more than you can even dream about!

Regards,
Jason Bay

I offered him $105 million in total this past round. Boston did two things, as they went from about $2 mil in FA money to $200,000. So the money per year actually went up! Plus from what Hammer said many many many years were involved. So with that my guess for Bay is that Boston has offered $26 million per for 15 years.

Nick said I couldn't use my cash to open an etrade account, so I figured I'd spend it.

lmao @ Puravida's comment


I'm bumping free agency up a little bit. 11:30 is really late, and I haven't gotten as many offers as I thought I would. Truthfully, the only reason I divided these into two final rounds was fear of Bay not signing and going into 1-year contract land. And that'd be kinda lame.


9:30 ... eastern time. For free agency tonight. Site upload, and spring training info will be posted right on time.

oh, and every trade is reflected in there too.

Wait, you're guaranteeing right on time?
What did you do with the real nick
