Teams will receive a hometown on players that are in final year of contracts during the extension process.
If teams are also bidding on free agents that play for the team you manage then you will receive a discount on the winning bid.
The discount will be 20 percent.
Example: I am Braves manager. There is a free agent in the Braves organization that I win the bid on. I will receive 20% discount off the winning bid. So if the winning bid is 16m then I actually get the player for 13.8m.
No player can make less than the league minimum of .500k mlb contract. So if the winning bid is 600k I can get a discount because that would be under .500k. If you win a hometown discount bid on a .600k bid then you would get the .500k limit. Just understand that every mlb contract has to be a minimum.500k
