SIM COMPLETE - 1986 - Offseason 3

[Riverman]

I thought players were supposed to get league minimum their first 3 years? Or is this a service time issue?

NM, I guess 1984 would be considered his first year.

According to the link Ramirez has exactly 3 years of major league service time so he is now eligible for arbitration. Major league service time is measured in days (on the active roster or DL) and I can never remember how many days equals one year.

In any case, if Ramirez had had one day less of ML service time, he still would have gotten the minimum in 1987.

How about sandwich picks???? Who'll pull one?

I figure Tesina (Denver), O'Fallon (Maine) and Cabezas (Carolina) are locks. Any other big names eligible?

A sandwich pick for me? I never thought the day would come.

My owner won't approve much...the basic contract for Tesina is out of my limit. Sweet...

Look at my personnel. Someone is getting ready to take over.

By the way, I raided Wilmington. Raided. I took their former manager, pitching coach, and hitting coach.

I noticed.

I come into the league and have like 7 coaching vacancies throughout the entire organization at all levels.

I look to see where they went...Denver Bulls.

Interesting tidbit:

Did you know that Washington's BENCH COACH (our former manager here in Baltimore) makes more money than over 50% of the managers in the league?


Including his own.

Yeah, he's a baller.
