Free Agency Poll

[Maydab23]

Its been discussed recently that it might be better to open up FA to all positions rather than spreading positions across weeks. Rather than just make a decision I decided to open it up to an ad-hoc poll. Please post your preference in the thread A, B or C. Any tie will be broken by commish.

A) Leave FA as is. Week 1 Catchers, Week 2 CIs, Week 3 MIs, Week 4 OFs, Week 5 SPs, Week 6 RPs, Week 7 forward all players.

B) Week 1 position players, Week 2 Pitchers, Week 3 forward all players.

C) All players open to have bids started on from day 1 FA.


Keep in mind the rules when voting. Specifically that teams are limited to 6 winning bids at any given time, a winning bid must stand for 48 hours before that player is signed, some teams will have much more to spend than other teams and your personal ability to be around when some players may be bid on. Rules can be found here for review

This is the biggest league out there we have always done it this way and this is one of the easiest ways to do it why make changes when u don't need it.

I think we just leave it, but I’m completely ok no matter what way it goes.

[leppardkev]

I'm fine with FA as is. A.

A, I like the structure and flow to free agency. Also everyone at once could become an administrative albatross.

[Jonathan]

A, proven method and more importantly...... easiest/cleanest  for the mods.
C is the worse, by far.

B
I'd be fine with A but maybe we could just flip the order so we start with P or OF first.

Personally, I like the idea of option B. This option pushes owners to have a true strategy going into the FA calendar. Teams with a lot of salary will be forced to prioritize because of the limit of six open bids. Teams with less money will have to pick the low hanging fruit or timing their bids strategically.

A option is second. The timeline is too long and heavily benefits teams who have wholesaled their teams.

Option C would be chaos and would need other revisions.
