Contract auto. renewal question
I'm still a little unclear on the "Contract gets automatically renewed" mechanic.
I thought that any player on the 40-man Roster making ML league minimum salary would have their contract automatically renewed at season's end, provided they are not eligible for arbitration. But it appears that if a player on the 40-man roster (making minimum salary) gets sent to the minors before the free agency period begins (Nov. 22?), their contract will get renewed as a *minor league contract* -- is that correct? That's what appears to have happened to several of my players -- I was (pleasantly) surprised by this but still not sure I understand what happened. Any further clarification on how auto renewal works would be much appreciated. |

anyone?
this is from the manual, but it contradicts what I have seen in my league -- I had players on the 40-man roster who were sent down to the minors, and then had their contracts renewed as *minor league* contracts. These players were *not* waived, just sent down -- ?? Major League Contracts Major league contracts run for a fixed number of years, and have a specific salary amount for each year in the contract. Major league contracts can also include no-trade clauses or incentives. A player with a major league contract remains under the team's control until one of the following events occurs:

Thanks -- although doesn't this hold for any player othe 40-man roster, not just the active roster? And is a player who is on the 40-man roster but in the minors *with a contract that has automatically reverted to a Minor League contract* actually costing me anything? The game could afford to be a little clearer on these points -- |
