90.2 Free Agent Draft - NYY up, ATL on deck

FREE AGENT SIGNING PERIOD:

The FA period is a two round draft in reverse order of regular season finish where each team can 'sign' pick two players off of another roster, in the case of ties we will use the SOM tie breakers. Those players have to have a card or have been identified per the spreadsheet to have played for the club picking them up. Each club can only lose 2 players to free agency. Immediately after a player is picked from a club the club that lost a player can protect any player still on their roster.

If one of your players is drafted off your roster you have the right to counteroffer for that player by using both your picks to keep him. Then the other club can also 'up' their offer to two picks to acquire that player. If by trade either club has acquired a 3rd or 4th pick than those can be used to 'up' the offer as well. The new club has the tie breaker. If the guy you draft is retained by their existing club you pick again.

Amendment 1:
When its your turn to pick in the FA draft you may elect to pick one of your own players. In that case you don't get to protect another player on your roster as you would if another club selected one of your players.

*New for 90's, Amendment 2:
If one of your players is drafted off your roster AND he's is listed as a Core6+ for you, your counteroffer for that player is only one pick, not the two listed above. The competing club can't up their offer, the bidding is over.

***Please allow time for the potential interaction per pick. Also remember that the team that loses a guy has to make their protection pick***

Below is the draft order for the FA draft.

Here's how we are going to handle guys that are Core4+ for 2 teams. By my count the players in question are all listed below...if you come across someone I missed please post here.

I've included Core4+x2 sheets for both batters and pitchers within the 90's Mystery BAL - KC google doc.
Batters:
Larry Walker - MON5 COL5 - Now Property of COL
Rafael Palmeiro - BAL5 TEX5 - Now Property of TEX
Omar Vizquel - CLV6 SEA4 - Now Property of SEA
Tino Martinez - SEA6 NYY4 - Now Property of SEA

Pitchers:
Tom Gordon - KC6 BOS4 - Now Property of BOS
Jeff Nelson - NYY4 SEA4 - Now Property of SEA
Scott Erickson - MIN5 BAL4 - Now Property of MIN
Kirk Rueter - SF4 MON4 - Now Property of MON

Both clubs can auto draft them, highest ranked wins. However, season 2 rights to that player go to the club that didn't get him in season 1, keeper or resigning during free agency by the season 1 club is not allowed. Season 2 club may however trade those rights.

If we were to ever expand out to more than 2 seasons we might treat Vizquel, Martinez, Gordon and Erickson differently.

Batters with more than two affiliated clubs:
Will Clark - TEX5 SF4 BAL1 - SF has no rights to Clark unless TEX doesn't AD him
Steve Finley - SD4 HOU4 BAL1 - SD has no rights to Finely unless HOU doesn't AD him
Wally Joyner - KC4 SD4 CAL2 - SD has no rights to Joyner unless KC doesn't AD him
Mike Stanley - NYY4 BOS4 TEX2 TOR1 - NYY has no rights to Stanley unless BOS doesn't AD him
Willie McGee - STL5 SF4 BOS1 - SF has no rights to McGee unless STL doesn't AD him
Lenny Harris - LA4 CIN4 NYM1 COL1 - No play in season 1, both core4 teams can AD

Both Core4+ clubs can auto draft these players, highest rank wins. The club that has them in season 1 has no rights in season 2. Those rights go to the other Core4+ club and the rights cannot be traded until after the free agency draft. However the other teams listed can claim these players during Free Agency after season 1 or pick them up if they are ever waived during either season. Free agency rules apply so the season 2 club can use the resigning clause if the player is claimed during the FA draft.

Question on Tino - he wasn’t drafted in season 1, I picked him up a week after the draft. Does he still default to Mariners? Looks like one part of rules refers to whoever drafts him can’t get him in season 2 and later it says whoever has him can’t have him in season 2. I can see me losing rights since I had him but on the other hand the M’s had a chance to pick him up and didn’t so should I be penalized because of that?

All other guys like this on my teams were drafted so me losing rights to draft them for season 2 makes sense.

I can't stand rules that leave open holes! ARGH, my apologies. So the intent of the rule was whichever team had him in season 1 would lose the rights to season 2. So it then comes down to the definition of 'having him'. You're right the rule as written does leave a little room for interpretation. Since your Yankees had him for over 400 ABs I'm going to have to say that you lose the rights to draft him and he can't be a keeper. BUT if the Mariners don't draft him he is fair game.

I will need to further define the rule, input is welcome. Definitely some level of playing for that club after the draft as I want to avoid teams leaving guys off their AD card and then picking them up immediately, pretty much allowing them to keep them for 2 seasons.

[color=#FF0000]So even though I'm the only one allowed to draft him I have to put him on my autodraft card?




I asked about this before season 1. my question and the response below.[/color]

"using Larry Walker as an example. If both the Rockies and Expos don't pick him in their autodraft, (conceding that they'll use him for season 2) and he gets picked up by the Rockies off of waivers are the Rockies still locked out from him on season 2? In this case it would appear the Expos had no plans for him anyway."

I have to admit I didn't think of that possibility. Yes if Walker gets through the auto draft without being selected and is subsequently picked up by the Rockies they would forgo any rights to him in season 2. Now you've got me going so I'll keep rolling...say Walker starts with the Rockies (auto draft or off waivers) and is dropped and then picked up by the Expos...both clubs would have a shot at him in season 2


sry if the post is a bit messy and confusing.

hmmm, so how about this...
If a player is drafted in season 1 by club X, then club Y has exclusive rights all season 2. So club Y can add/drop the player any time like they are exclusive to club Y. BUT if the player is not drafted by club X or club Y in season 1, then subsequently picked up by club X in season 1. In season 2 club Y has auto draft rights to player. If club Y doesn't auto draft the player or drops them before or during the season then club X can pick the player up. If in season 1 player is on both club X and club Y's roster at some point then both clubs have rights to player in season 2. whew, ok thoughts on that?

However the other teams listed can claim these players during Free Agency after season 1 or pick them up if they are ever waived during either season. Free agency rules apply so the season 2 club can use the resigning clause if the player is claimed during the FA draft.
