Oh, so they're really getting TWO years to do this?
Looks pretty good Colby. I'd say we want to enforce MAX/MIN cap rooms as well, with something similar to what our current high and low's are (250/50, although maybe we could reduce the spread a little bit).
All I am saying is that the top three tiers (6 teams) would follow the old rules for one more year (2011) whereas the rest of the league would use the new cap formula. This gives a couple big market teams such as the Phillies and Mets time to shed some contracts or not resign certain players.For example, say the Mets (currently in tier #2) spend enough money in 2010 that would put them in to tier #4 for 2011. Since they are one of the top three tiers in 2010, they will then have a cap of $125m. The new rule would not apply to them no matter what.
You guys are killing me......the only way to get in some way competitive is to buy my way out of this payroll morass that I inherited and now you are going to lower my payroll and still make my pay for retired guys.....I wish the guy was really lazy then I wouldn't have so much work to do!!
