UFA Biding Rules
All Players available on fantrax that are MLB Plyers are available for UFA. 200AB 1o IP. You most create a new thread with players name
When placing your bid it must contain the avg. annual salary amount of years and points based off our table. and the amount of cap space your team has it should look like this
25M AAS 5 years 150 points
cap space 50M
any bid not containing this information will be illegal.
In order to trump previous bid in a one year deal you must beat the bid by one point in multiple year deals by 2 points all according to our bidding table
The Minimum bid amount is 500k and max 25M
The minimum amount of years is 1 max 5
Since we have a max bid if more than one team bids the max we will have a signing bonus to award the player each team will be notified and have to send a pm to the commissioner containing there offer for signing bonus. If there is a tie in signing bonus the player will be awarded to the team with worst finishing position from previous season.
In order to be the highest bidder your bid must not be topped for 24 hours all bids are binding.
Once it becomes official where the player will be going the winnign team will have 24 hours to announce the roster breakdown the rules for roster breakdown are as follows you can only go up or down 20% of the AAS. You may add CO on to the end of contracts that are multiyear deals NOT one year deals. Remember only 5 years is allowed so in a 3 year deal you can add on two CO years. When adding on CO it must be 20 % higher than the AAS.
If it becomes a problem where people keep bidding at the last minute the 24 hour standing bid time will be decreased.
No OWNER IS ALLOWED TO BID MORE THAN THEY HAVE IN AVAILABLE CAP.
IF a owner continualy bids over there cap after they have been warned they will not be able to bid for 24 hours.
You may however bid on players if you have no roster space but in your bid you must note that you will conditionaly drop so and so if player won.
