Rule Change Proposal - 70% Extension Rule
«

Our free agency pool has diminished over the last few years. More players are being signed to extensions causing this decrease. I believe free agency is an important part of building a team and the pool needs to reflect that. As a result, I am proposing we retire the 70% extension rule in this league. A player could not be signed to an extension for less than the previous season's salary. I believe many of the players in this category would then find their way to free agency, thereby making a more robust free agent pool.

I'd be interested to see how many of these extensions actually take place each year. I think that they are likely few and far between and almost all apply to aging veterans that are still way overpaid, even if they extension is given. While it may add a few aging vets to the free agent pool, I would venture to guess it may result in bad overpriced contracts being given out, for players that end up retired and being dead money on rosters.

When I have a few minutes, I'll take a look and post those from this past extension period.

Don't worry about it, I just did some quick looking and many more already than I thought.
I do still think they're mostly aging stars, but it would make for more difficult decisions. Maybe some sort of qualifier based on age? 38 or older you can resign at 70% but younger than that and you can't?

Maybe there is a better way to do it in general too. I am certainly open to that. The reason I looked at this rule is that players who were taking a salary decrease will almost certainly do that after going through free agency.

This is the worst rule in FGM and will not be missed if it is discarded. It is rarely used and then only in desperation.

I like the concept but feel like there needs to be some sort of age-based exception like Ryan mentioned above, where the 70% exception only applies for guys above age x, where x is like 33 or something. Otherwise it's hard to keep aging vets.

Like this idea, but needs to be flushed out more. Doesn't have to be very confusing, but age/performance should definitely play a factor.

Been starting to get into these older games that originally ran off DOSBOX for those who know what I'm talking about. The idea is you build your team with a salary of XXX and then every 2-3 seasons you have decisions to make. Field a 26 man roster, control your own pitching rotation, pen, lineup & bench like the true MLB. Draft every season where there's a lot of turnover. Interesting for sure.
