Colby,

Could you please provide a re-fresher course on how team salary caps are computed?  I too am curious when my own team's cap will be re-calculated and how it will be done.

Colby,

You can just send me the spreadsheet (or Howe or whoever has it) and I will update the info.  Essentially, if the A's win the World Series then the highest payroll in real-life 2012 MLB will be applied to their future caps (two years out, and used for three years).  There is a stipulation that prevents volatile cap swings of more than 20%, so that is regressed against the current caps.

What do you mean by the "highest payroll in real-life 2012 MLB"?  I did not think there was a correlation between our teams and MLB teams.  Perhaps, that is what confused Dan Wood as well.

From the chat
rcankosy: we need the layman's explanation for all this
Delete Today at 04:51:05 PM
rcankosy: I'm afraid no more than 5 people may understand all this
Delete Today at 04:51:27 PM
shooter47: Haven't the orioles come pretty close to bottoming out their cap...if you finish 30th every year the only fluctuation in the cap would be what the lowest team in the majors has spent?
Delete Today at 04:51:59 PM
shooter47: I understand the cap system...its not that bad
Delete Today at 04:52:10 PM
ProFSL: there is no layman's explanation other than this... you win, and your caps two years out will increase a bit
Delete Today at 04:52:25 PM
ProFSL: sound logic was developed to put it together, it doesn't replicate revenue sharing or ownership, but it is a great cap adjustment formula
Delete Today at 04:53:02 PM
rcankosy: the logic is sound
Delete Today at 04:53:46 PM
rcankosy: the effect are not predicatble (at least not to me)
Delete Today at 04:54:01 PM
rcankosy: asked another way
Delete Today at 04:56:38 PM
rcankosy: how many years of winning the WS would it take for the As to "inherit" the Yanks' real life MLB payroll?
Delete Today at 04:57:12 PM
rcankosy: 5, 10, 25 years?
Delete Today at 04:57:23 PM
rcankosy: ever?
Delete Today at 04:57:26 PM
shooter47: a long time...
Delete Today at 04:57:45 PM
rcankosy: understood
Delete Today at 04:58:22 PM
rcankosy: define long time
Delete Today at 04:58:26 PM
ProFSL: a long time
Delete Today at 04:58:40 PM
rcankosy: if it's more than 5 years, something is wrong
Delete Today at 04:58:45 PM
ProFSL: I can break out a spreadsheet for this one
Delete Today at 04:58:55 PM
rcankosy: we should not be wed to our real life counter-parts for that long
Delete Today at 04:59:02 PM
ProFSL: cap is at $81m, and say the highest payroll + $20m is $230m
Delete Today at 04:59:06 PM
rcankosy: that defeats the premise of winning
Delete Today at 04:59:14 PM
shooter47: It's designed to make the changes to the salary cap smoother and not raise or fall by huge amounts
Delete Today at 05:00:23 PM
rcankosy: I know we capped it at 20M per season
Delete Today at 05:01:00 PM
rcankosy: I mean 20%
Delete Today at 05:01:10 PM
ProFSL: got the answer...
Delete Today at 05:01:38 PM
ProFSL: if they win world series every year
Delete Today at 05:02:31 PM
ProFSL: their caps for 2012/13 are set
Delete Today at 05:02:38 PM
ProFSL: 2014 is at $90.5m right now
Delete Today at 05:02:46 PM
ProFSL: but looks like it will go to $102m
Delete Today at 05:02:52 PM
ProFSL: In 2017, it will be $148.6m
Delete Today at 05:03:07 PM
ProFSL: In 2019, it is no longer affected by the 20/20 smoothing adjustment and the cap is $184.0m
Delete Today at 05:03:42 PM
rcankosy: wow
Delete Today at 05:04:33 PM
ProFSL: 2020-2024, $195.5m, $204.1m, $210.6m, $215.4m, $219.1m
Delete Today at 05:04:37 PM
ProFSL: the increases slow down since they are so close to the top
Delete Today at 05:04:46 PM
rcankosy: effectively, they would become the Yankees if they continue to win
Delete Today at 05:05:09 PM
ProFSL: note that if all of a sudden they start losing big time, worst in the league, that there will still be two years in which their caps would increase based on the past
Delete Today at 05:05:19 PM
ProFSL: Of course... but it doesn't happen overnight, it takes up to a decade of dominance for a small market team to turn into the Yankees
Delete Today at 05:05:52 PM
shooter47: eventually yeah...this is assuming that the spending in MLB baseball stays similar to what it currently is.
Delete Today at 05:05:58 PM
ProFSL: also, those #'s aren't set
Delete Today at 05:06:03 PM
ProFSL: they are assumptions based on the $230m figure
Delete Today at 05:06:12 PM
ProFSL: MLB inflation will drive these numbers higher
Delete Today at 05:06:19 PM
ProFSL: and affect our market prices for players
Delete Today at 05:06:24 PM
ProFSL: We thought about all of this when the rules were developed
Delete Today at 05:06:32 PM
rcankosy: gotcha
Delete Today at 05:06:32 PM
ProFSL: As opposed to a simple layman's way which will turn the A's into the Yankees within a few years

  • Rhino7: Good team except the contracts
    Yesterday at 03:09:09 PM
  • Daddy: Youve seen them? We havent completely structured all that yet. Weve got expansion and other factors that the real Wolves dont face.
    Yesterday at 03:39:40 PM
  • Daddy: My comment on the real Wolves are if they win a chip then there is no such things as bad contracts. The point of all contracts are to win Championships.

  • STLBlues91: I will be around the rest of the day to talk deals. Tomorrow I will be around after work but plan on being in some spreadsheets most the day

    Yesterday at 05:33:13 PM
  • Daddy: @Rhino7 the rumor is they've got a decent GM in both leagues. Especially NBA LIVE. (Howwwwwwwl)
    Yesterday at 07:13:40 PM
  • STLBlues91: Well Vegas is ready to grab one of the players on the roster
    Yesterday at 07:17:34 PM
  • Daddy: Lol, Seattle too Im sure.:rofl:
    Yesterday at 07:43:10 PM
  • Daddy: I will leak this... Each team will be allowed to protect 5 and each team can only lose one player to expansion
    Yesterday at 07:44:21 PM
  • Daddy: 30 teams to draw from = 15 players each
    Yesterday at 07:44:57 PM
  • STLBlues91: Id also imagine trading and all that can happen. Like pick a guy to trade to another team to pick up other assets
    Yesterday at 07:45:25 PM
  • Daddy: You know LIVE rules. Once they are yours you can do whatever you like.
    Yesterday at 07:46:32 PM
  • STLBlues91: Yeah had to just check. So a deadline to select the keepers. Then a few days for the selection. Me and Seattle alternate picks?
    Yesterday at 07:47:47 PM
  • Daddy: The expansion draft is LIVE alternating picks until both teams have 15 players like the NBA All Star teams get picked.

    Yesterday at 07:49:52 PM
  • STLBlues91: Sounds good I didnt know if it would be like the NHL expansion with seattle where they get posted or live broadcasting
    Yesterday at 07:50:02 PM
  • Daddy: The "Expansion draft" will be a LIVE Event & followed by the Entry Draft where Vegas/Seattle also will start off with picks #1 & #2.
    Yesterday at 07:50:06 PM
  • Daddy: We doing BIG Crap with this basketball league. Buckle up!
    Yesterday at 07:50:46 PM
  • Daddy: NBA LIVE is codenamed "The "Matrix" for all the numbers we running. Its currently being built.
    Yesterday at 07:52:40 PM
  • STLBlues91: Well I will get my roster breakdown before the live expansion since I am done working for the summer next Wednesday
    Yesterday at 08:01:38 PM
  • Daddy: NHL LIVE will drop first. Hockey guys trade like crazy. Good luck. :)
    Yesterday at 08:12:04 PM
  • STLBlues91: Yeah working on that spreadsheet and a few fixes on it. May do some slight visual adds and then to NCAA football sheet which I got going as well

    Yesterday at 09:14:11 PM
  • Daddy: Can you imagine a league(s).  Where EVERY player that becomes a professional has value.. and 30-32 teams have 30-32 different people are actively determining that value?
    Today at 01:46:50 AM
  • Daddy: Where you dont wait for trades to happen on scoring sites or SS updates and the only thing asked of you is to run your own franchise and see how good you are. On an EVEN playing field.
    Today at 01:48:59 AM
  • Daddy: Its already near impossible to get into NFL LIVE. We had to start up a 64 team league just to accommodate the waiting list. True Story.
    Today at 01:55:29 AM
  • Daddy: Once full. NBA, NHL, & NCAAs will be very difficult to get into. People dont just walk away from LIVE often and when they do... They usually want back in. Legit dont miss your team in your sports. Get them while you can.
