You learn quick.

I am using this bit again.

Let's say that a Team A, call up to play in the BLB a player Z who is in the minors. Then because is not needed anymore Team A decide:

1)To Demote him... The minimum salary will stay in the budget of the team for the next years and time until arbitration starts to run

2) To waive him... If team Y claims him then the money and the arbitration time counts but for team Y.... If he is not claimed and is demoted after clear waivers, what happens with him?? Salary does count to team A anyway?

Assuming the player has a major league contract...

If you send him down to AAA, your team continues paying his contract out of your BLB budget.

If you waive him and he is claimed, the team who claims him now owns both the player and the contract.

If you waive him and he is not claimed, nothing happens. You still have the player and his contract.

Also remember that if a player on your BLB roster does not have options remaining he will need to be designated for assignment and waived in order to be sent down to AAA. A simple waive is not enough.

Ouch. Did you get one of those "2 man" power diggers? (Hoping you have someone who can help) We have to go 38" for a deck back in the day and it was brutal.

Question...when you guys were talking about "watching the game" or "watching the replay" and you even mentioned squinting to see it, what did you mean and how did you do that?

Yeah, same. Super 2 status is in play, 6 years of club control then FA.

Thanks! I don't know when they become available when they are nearly 30 and they will start to suck in two years :)
