Post Free Agent Draft Updates
The online versions of the Master Roster, Player/Money Totals and Unowned Player files have been updated through the Free Agent Draft.
The updating of the Unowned Player file had nothing to do with yesterday's draft, but there was an addition made to it. Aaron Sanchez was cut at payroll time, but I mistakenly kept him on the Titans until the error was pointed out to me. He's now included in the online version.
Here is how the draft affected each team's bottom line:
- Bandits (-145)
- Captains (-41)
- Gypsies (-150)
- Monarchs (+250)
- Pilgrims (-70)
- Reds (-4)
- RockHounds (-35)
- Titans (+31)
- Twins (+132)
- Whales (-216)
- Yellow Jackets (-316)
Also, there were 3 instances of single year bids being over the protected rates of the players. In those cases, the protected rate is listed in the master roster... per our rule:
>>> In this draft, when single year offers are for more than the protected rate, the excess over the protected rate is considered a bonus. For example, if a veteran has a protected rate of $80,000 and the successful bid on the player is a single year offer of $101,000, $21,000 is considered a bonus and the player goes on the roster with an $80,000 salary. There are no bonuses involved with multi-year contracts.
Those instances were:
- Bandits bid 170k on Iglesias and his protected rate was 165k.
- RockHounds matched Maldonado at 81k and his protected rate was 80k.
- Whales matched on Williams at 106k and his protected rate was 105k.
Not huge changes in any of these cases, but this is the reason why their listed salary does not match what these teams paid for the above players.
Free Agent Draft Results
Here are the results of the Free Agent Draft... which had 8 players changing teams and 6 others had bids matched.
These 5 players did not have their bids matched by their previous teams:
- Baez, Javier (formerly on the Titans) goes to the Yellow Jackets for 151k x 5
- Brantley, Michael (formerly on the Monarchs) goes to the Gypsies for 119k x 2
- Hoskins, Rhys (formerly on the Monarchs) goes to the Yellow Jackets for 165k x 5
- Iglesias, Raisel (formerly on the Twins) goes to the Bandits for 170k
- Manaea, Sean (formerly on the Bandits) goes to the Whales for 90k x 3
The Monarchs lost these 3 players because they had no answering rights:
- Choi, Ji-Man (went to the Pilgrims for 70k)
- Higashioka, Kyle (went to the Gypsies for 31k)
- Rogers, Taylor (went to the Whales for 90k x 2)
These players were retained by their previous team by matching bids:
- Hill, Tim (Captains) matched a bid of 81k x 2 by the Pelicans
- Laureano, Ramon (Captains) matched a bid of 80k x 3 by the Pilots
- Lemahieu, DJ (Reds) matched a bid of 169k by the Gypsies
- Maldonado, Martin (RockHounds) matched a bid of 81k by the Bandits
- Williams, Trevor (Whales) matched a bid of 106k by the Bandits
- Yelich, Christian (Titans) matched a bid of 154k by the Yellow Jackets
And finally, these players received no bids:
- Alberto, Hanser
- Alfaro, Jorge
- Bradley, Jackie
- Cessa, Luis
- Cishek, Steve
- Dozier, Hunter
- Duvall, Adam
- Flores, Wilmer
- Floro, Dylan
