Losing an RFA
« on: February 16, 2010, 01:32:01 PM »
I wanted to propose an idea for when an RFA is tagged and then lost to another team. I think the team that loses the RFA should receive some sort of compensation. Something along a supplemental first round draft pick. This would be similar to losing a Type A free agent, or in football, losing an RFA. The stipulation is that you had to bid on the player when they are posted on the transactions board. Otherwise you would not be due any compensation. This would inhibit teams from random RFA tagging just to get the pick. The supplemental picks would be ordered in Fantrax value of player lost. For instance Matt Holliday would have more value than Russell Branyan. And whoever lost Holliday picks before whoever lost Branyan. I would like to know your thoughts on this matter. This would probably help smaller market teams recoup the loss of their RFAs.

 :iatp: I like Dan's idea.  It is sound, covers all points, and matches what MLB has.  We would have to match the number of fantasy points with each of the 10 rounds of the draft.  Something like 4000+ points is Supplemental-1st round (1-S) and then...

3000+ (2-S)
2500+ (3-S)
2000+ (4-S)
1500+ (5-S)
1000+ (6-S)
750+ (7-S)
500+ (8-S)
250+ (9-S)
0+ (10-S)

The team getting the RFA player would not be affected.

I think we may need to lower the scoring echelons a bit. Bay, Holliday, Choo, and Zobrist all scored well under 4,000 points and I thin we can agree that they should be considered Type A FAs. We would also have to consider a separate scoring system for pitchers, since they score drastically less. Case in point Nolasco was under 2,000 for the season. I think 2700 is a good place to start for 1-S, and drop it per 500 for each round. And after the 5th round does it matter anymore? So maybe like

2700 or higher - 1S
2000 - 2700 -  2S
1000 - 2000 -  3S
0-1000 - 4S

Looks good Dan.  We don't need a supplemental round for each round of the draft anyways.  I was just throwing out random numbers from my crappy memory like a wild cowboy anyways.  The structure and idea is what was important.

I like it (pats self on back). Obviously I will leave it up to the RC to further suss it out. But it has my vote. And I think it might be worth implementing to the upcoming draft.

I haven't had a chance to carefully look at the numbers, but I'm definitely on board - I tried to have a similar rule incorporated last season but it never got off the ground.

I'm in agreement with the concept, and the numbers look good for a first implementation.  Alternatively, we could say if the player is within the top X at their position, you'd get Y for a pick, using the same scale as for contract extensions.

I'm not in favor of applying a new rule to this years RFA's / Draft.  Owners would have likely made different decisions when applying their RFA tags, knowing they could receive compensations for some players and not others, rather than strictly focusing on players they'd want to retain.

  • indiansnation: 2:15PM: The Dodgers announced this afternoon that they’ve placed right-hander Yoshinobu Yamamoto on the 15-day injured list with triceps tightness. The club also placed right-hander Michael Grove on the 15-day injured list due to lat tightness. In corresponding moves, the club has recalled right-hander J.P. Feyereisen and selected the contract of right-hander Michael Petersen. To make room for Petersen on the 40-man roster, the Dodgers transferred right-hander Joe Kelly to the 60-day injured list.

  • indiansnation: Mookie Betts was hit on the left hand by a Dan Altavilla fastball today, causing Betts to drop to the ground in immediate pain and then leave the game.  Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters (including Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times) after the game that Betts has a fractured bone in the hand and will be out of action “for some time,” though the former AL MVP won’t require surgery.
