Question about Arbitration relating to available money in OOTP11...

Cliche · 02-20-2010, 03:47 AM

Okay.

One of my biggest pet peeves about OOTPX is that when I have a guy who is in his arbitration years and I want to extend him... his arbitration money counts against my extension money. Even though he's the one I'm trying to extend. Essentially the money is counting twice.

I agree that arby money should count against extension money... but not when you're extending a guy versus letting him go to arbitration.

This has caused me to lose more than a handful of players over the years. I am praying that this will be addressed in OOTP11.

Curious as to whether this has been implemented or discussed or none of the above.

I just had this issue in OOTP X and got pretty upset but then realized my owner still let me offer an extension even though I was technically over budget. Has you at least tried to offer the extension?
