-Type D > $6
-Type E > $0.5
- Comp Picks/Team's Picks- Will be rewarded for that year's upcoming FYPD
- Comp pick order to be decided based on Comp Type/$/length of contract
Bid Value and Structure:
-AAV (Average Annual Value)-This is the average by the amount of years offered in a contract.
-BV(Bid Value)-This determines the value of your bid based on a percentage.
To allow for a better contract environment bids are now given value based on Dollar Mount and years offered.
1 year = Total Salary x 1.6
2 year = Total Salary x 1.4
3 year = Total Salary x 1.2
4 year = Total Salary x 1
Player match can be made or player can be released to the winning team after the 1 week bidding period. Match is based on AAS. Length can be determined by retaining team as long as the AAS is consistent. Under no circumstances should any 1 year of the Full contract exceed or be less than 25% of the AAS(average)
Players with RFA tagged that do not get offered a contract: The retaining team then has the option to extend the player at a contract of (1 year/$2) or the other option would be to release the player as a UFA with no penalty.
Qualifying Offer (QO)
- RFA Tag has an option to use as a QO
- each team can only use 1 QO (Tier 5 teams have 2 RFA tags, can only use 1 QO)
- QO can only be extended to player who has been on team the whole year
- QO is average of top 125 salaries in MLB (1 year $19 deal)
- QO is a 1 year deal and the player cannot be extended after that and is a FA the following year no matter what (even if acquired in a trade)
- Once list of players who have received QO is finalized before RFA begins, the players will still be allowed to go through RFA process and will be posted in a group and teams can submit to FA Account if they’d like to enter an Open Bidding with player
** player is automatically part of Type A compensation in RFA **
