The listing below, taken from the A and B Free Agents page, is great. Ben (BrewersGM) year after year mops up early picks. It is amazing to me. Kudos Ben. If only we could all get 500 extra picks every season.
I think RP compensation is way out of whack.
Edwin Encarnacion missed being a Type A free agent by .08 points! He would have been top 10 easily if he had not missed nearly the last most of the season due to injury.
Has the FGM Rules Committee looked at this recently?
The value of RP's is set based on the scoring breakdown we use from Bill James, an estimate at reflecting true value. The compensation rules are directly from MLB. I've never really looked carefully, but what does the MLB market for RP's look like with respect to compensation? Do most FA RP's that would require lost picks go untouched?
