Just tested. You cannot avoid minor league free agency simply by putting a guy on the 40-man roster. If he's out of option years and has the service time, he will become a free agent unless you sign him to a contract extension.

Well I guess I need to better explain myself...Though that is definitely disappointing news, as thats the complete opposite of how it should happen...
My question is, have the Minor League options been fixed to require a player who is out of options to be exposed to waivers before being sent to the minors, as it happens in the MLB? or does the game still allow a team to keep a player at the minor league level, even though he is out of options?
