Would get the same discount if the player wasn't drafted by your club, but joined when he was young and did his development with your team. When a player gets released from the team that developed him, he gets a bump in salary. He also follows a different track in terms of salary increases. Guys like Daniel often seem to make a big correction the first off-season with their non home club. |

Tiger504 Joined: 06/17/2014 Posts: 1314 Kalamazoo Bloody Tigers IV.7 | I have not figured out how salaries are figured in the year+ I've been here but I suspect at bats and innings pitched may have a bigger impact than actual performance. As far as Fischer goes, I am wondering if my relegation had an impact, and conversely, promotion would likely impact as well. I had Velez go from 5 million plus to 3 million plus as well, so I had a couple of large salaried acquisitions drop significantly this spring. |

Benchwarmer Joined: 01/06/2015 Posts: 445 Inactive | In league level 5/6? What kind of a fool picks up a player with that big of a contract at that low a level? I bet his finances are severely in the red unless the rest of his players are $0.5mil rookies. | ||

Spoonerific Joined: 01/17/2013 Posts: 339 Inactive | Top 3 position players make over 25 M combined. Which is more than all my position players combined. Geez. But it looks like signing a bunch of free agents is bad for business. |

PrivateSnowflake Joined: 01/06/2015 Posts: 1160 Bloomington Thunder Legends | Well he did promote. 119 wins and 8 runs a game. Those guys paid off against division six pitching. One guy had 175 rbi's. Whatever he was doing wasn't working. Started in D3 and steadily dropped. Maybe this was a last ditch effort. I do still think Dan Snyder would mess up an Arena 2 league team |
