Minor League Contract

Orsalak · 07-17-2010, 03:34 PM

What happens to the free agents you sign to a minor league contract? I signed a few earlier in the year but I have no idea where they are now. One I was able to track down because I remembered his name and when I went in to edit his card to see who he played for, he had now league selected but he was signed to a minor league contract. Did I miss a step somewhere? How was I suppose to get him assigned to one of my minor league teams?

If you signed them previously, a message should still be in your inbox saying "Player so and so agrees to contract" and in that message, you can right click the player's name and send him to wherever you want in your organization. At least... this is how I do it, anyway.

All players who aren't signed to a major league contract should automatically be assigned to your lowest minor league team or the reserve roster, depending on your league setup. I'd look at the roster of your lowest level team - they should be there.

Major league contract FAs are put on the designated for assignment list.

That was it. They were on my rookie league team. Thanks!
