In my experience the late signing elite relievers are usually in negotiations with several teams for a couple months. For some reason, the teams tend to not start negotiating with them until their ask drops in spring training and then the bidding war will carry into April or early May and the eventually sign a 1 year deal for 2-3x their reduced demand.
