1. Am I correct to assume that, since he is in the minors, the MLC will take effect, and he will not be offered arbitration?
2. If the above is correct, do I need to place him on the 40-man roster to prevent him from becoming a Minor League FA? (since he has more than 6 years of pro service)
Here is his player page: http://ssbl.net/reports/p2956.html |
If he is on your 40 man roster (he must be as you can't have a player with a major league contract in the minors w/o taking a 40 man spot) and has agreed to an extension than he will get a minor league contract when the season flips. If you were to have this player on your 25 man roster he would get a $300,000 contract (the game would give him the minor league contract but since he was on the 25 man roster he would get the minimum). In either case he doesn't get arbitration.
