During or after the Supplemental draft, do we need to make special moves? Is this the reason there should not be a freeze on transactions during the draft. Just trying to understand any impacting circumstances. Thanks.
I’ll catch you up boss.
In the inaugural supplemental draft by happenstance it was discovered that buyout players who meet eligibility requirements can be drafted. Someone late that draft tied it all together and dropped a player from their own roster to essentially transfer them to the MiLR and gain 3 year contract control and EL expansion draft exemption.
Last year someone added a wrinkle and bought out a high round draft pick and placed them back in their minors w the commissioner approved caveat they were now eligible for entry contract at the league minimum.
My take is the second round of the supplemental is mostly garbage so either of the options above might be a more enticing use of the pick.
I’m only chasing down this because I traded for late supplementals and signed FAs to move to MiLR. It represents some loss of early supplemental picks where the talent is if I use those picks to move players down. Also having the option to reduce EL contract value could help Colorado. The 22nd appears to be wrong chronologically w the previous deadlines so not big request. I suspect we now all have the same opportunities for this years best ever supplemental draft.
PR can you please shift that date. If it was only on one late pick I wouldn’t whimper so much but I have a handful in jeapordy of losing their intended use.
