I didn't offer him ARB but think I still have HTD of 15% for having promoted him?
If so I think it is (510K/23)
15% HTD granted.
Just to be clear though - there will be no HTD for any future contract because you are only re-signing him to a 2 year contract.
This might be a bit too late, but should the ACLs have gotten a 15% home team discount on Betts, Lindor, and Sano? I don't recall this change (this would be my fault though), but it would seem like all of these players should get it, since I originally promoted them. I'm not sure if this is true with other free agents that got an HTD.
Processed in database.
They should all be 15% I believe.
This was the first time I saw a 15% discount, I think. I did look at other signings and only saw 10% discounts.
Jason,
We implemented that change 2 years ago I think. I'm kind of dependent on owners to tell me when the 15% applies versus the 10% so I assume 10% unless someone tells me (and then I go check last year's spreadsheet.)
I will add the 15% for those three guys. Just keep my informed in the future.
David,
Thanks. I kind of vaguely recall a discussion about a 15% discount and thinking that would come in handy with Betts and Lindor down the road. Looking at prior emails, it looks like this was originally discussed in December 2019 or January 2020. I guess the world turning upside down made me forget this change. :) Plus, I don't recall other owners using it on their HTD, so it just keep below my radar. Thanks again and I'll remember that for the future (yes, I'm talking about Mr. Soto here).
I'm still a little sore that we don't get a 15% discount for players who have played their entire MSB career (3 year contracts always) with the same team. Those guys that are no longer available at draft time because they had too many ABs, but weren't taken in the draft because they either weren't weren't hyped up in the rankings, or came over as a FA from Japan or Korea. For me personally, I'm talking about Max Muncy and Seth Lugo.
I don't suppose we could ever open up that can of worms again?
I wouldn’t be opposed to another 5% off what I paid for Ohtani!
refreshing on the rules before each event , FTW! I say only I get the 15% 😈
