You said you signed Cotts to an MLE, but the site says he's an FA after the season?

[nick]

He's signed to an extension in the game. Dunno why that is like that on the site.... but if he doesn't re-sign for some reason, I'll assign him to yr team in the offseason.

araMIS - probably will test the market, but offer?
upton - will test the market next yr, needs a winning team! (wont let me offer)
