2050 Arbitration cuts and extentions deadline: As soon as the World Series is over

[HollywoodLeo]

As soon as the World Series is done I'm prone to roll the season over without notice at any time. I may still work extensions if I haven't gotten around to it yet, but I wouldn't count on that because I'd rather not have to finish up last second extensions before I can roll it over. So finish them now.

Format arbitration cuts as follows

Team:

Position - Player x - Level (MLB, AAA, AA, or A)

How the hell is Eckersley in line for almost $6 mil his 1st time in arby with the shitty season he had? I don't get that at all.

His ratings.

[Providence A's]

I thought it was based on performance. If it's ratings, that BS...for him to get basically the same salary as Grover Alexander did through arby pitching with an ERA close to 5.

[PhillyFan]

I'll take him off your hands.

[Providence A's]

Sure. Just return Valles.

I love her! We have an awesome GIF of her on the other forum.

I think it's one of those fickle outcomes of OOTP. For instance, can anyone tell me why Rod Carew is projected to get a half a million more in his first year of arbitration than Hershiser?!? I'm not griping because they both performed well, but logic says an ace Cy Young winner commands more than a great leadoff hitter.

In Eck's case, the jump from being a reliever to SP could have caused the jump in salary.

[Providence A's]

He started April and May...then not again until September. Anyway, let's test that theory. Assuming Leo didn't roll-over yet, I asked him to change Eckersley back to MR.
