Salary Travel
« on: January 15, 2017, 11:30:11 PM »
For example, in MLB a team can include salary with a traded player to cover salary like we do here.  If the player is traded again with the same contract, rare but possible, that salary doesn't necessarily travel to the new team. 

Do you think that salary should travel or should that be up to the team's to make those decisions?

I believe that it should be up to the team, and it can be part of the trade negotiations.

As I said in the chat, if a player has a salary of 10m but the team I'm trading with is only paying 4m, then I should only be paying 4m

If I trade the reds Andrew Miller and pay his salary for two years and he trades him again the next team should not have to pay it. So like in your trade where Jose is free the next team should not have to pay his 6MM

Why?  An MLB team wouldn't pass that salary money on to the next team unless they were getting talent back for that money.  Money matters.

If the salary is paid yes. Kemp is still getting paid by the Dodgers. So why would the same not apply here?

I think if a player is traded to a team and money is sent to help cover or completely cover his contract the money should travel with the player otherwise the team getting the player is winning twice once by getting the player with money to help pay him off and again by trading him and not sending the money they got with the player.  In that case you have three teams being affected by one trade between two teams because you keep money someone else is still gave you for a player and the team you traded with is out that money you got for him so it is like the player is being paid twice.

I don't like confusing Fantasy Baseball with MLB, I don't really think that the way MLB does something is the best way for Fantasy to do something.

I believe that the money is being paid to the player not the team the player is playing for. As for the Kemp example, according to Cots, The Dodgers are paying money to Kemp, not to the Padres or to the Braves. The Padres are also paying Kemp. The Braves are also paying Kemp. Basically the agreement between the Dodgers and Padres is that the Dodgers will a certin part of the contract, therefore the payment is linked to the player not the team that traded for him.

Otherwise this would fall under the rule of sending cash money from one team to another, which would have to be approved by the league offices....

If you got a player in a trade who was Paid for for x amount of years and he is traded again the new team should get the same deal not have to pay his full deal.

  • Braves155: The problem with the minors is not the system as a whole, it is some Farm Systems are more 'elite' at being able to produce talent than others. If you look across MLB teams you can pretty easily tell the great systems from the weaker systems and talent development
