Oh believe me, Dan, you're not the only one. I can't count how many times I've emailed the CO to ask questions about salary years and arbitration years. Coming from a non-salary cap league for 14 years prior to rejoining MSB this has been my steepest learning curve. I still have to take a few seconds to think things through in terms of salary years and such.
I finally put together a COT's type salary and payroll tracker so I can try and keep straight my own teams budget and contract years. That seems to have helped, but even that took some tweaking and questions to the CO.
