Sorry, I mixed up Robertson and Siegrist. 

Robertson should be 1(2018)
Siegrist 1.1(2018)

RP Robertson, David, $2.8m (2016)  Best Rank 123 in 2015 (1.1)(2019)
***Must be at least 50% of previous contract = $1.4m (2019)

"Any player signed to a new contract in the off-season after the original contract ends must be signed to at least 50% of what they made before, rounded to the nearest $0.5m"

The Pirates would also like to extend

Jonathan Schoop .3(P-2017) Highest Rank 21 in 2016 .6(2019)
Dylan Bundy .5(2017) Highest Rank 153 in 2016 .5(2019)
Zach Britton 3(2017) Highest Rank 124 in 2016 1(2019)

Jonathan Schoop .3(P-2017) Highest Rank 21 in 2016 .6(2019)
Dylan Bundy .5(2017) Highest Rank 153 in 2016 .5(2019)
Zach Britton 3(2017) Highest Rank 124 in 2016 1(2019)

The extent of Schoop' status as a Prospect contract should be limited to the fact that he is indeed a prospect.  Since he is being extended now,under the rules governing regular contracts, the new terms would start immediately:
Jonathan Schoop $0.6m (2018)

Britton's terms are of more concern:
I see him as the 22nd rated RP or $9m/yr.

[RyanJames5]

I'll wait to extend Schoop, but I request that it be written into the rules that any prospect extension during the off-season takes place immediately. So that the rule is interpreted equally across the board.

However the explanation makes no sense, because my regular extensions of regular players don't begin until after the upcoming season. So please, as I stated above rephrase and write it into the rules that prospects being extended in the off-season take place immediately.

The salaries are set at only pitchers so Britton is 124 and therefore 1M.

Since Britton needed to be 1.5 I would like to add a 3rd year to his extension please. So please make Britton 1.5(2020)

Another question on extensions also. I believe we are allowed to raise the dollar amount of an extension to be able to offer an extra year correct?  Like if the player is at 1M I could offer 1.1 to get to 1.1(2020) instead of 1(2019).

Yes, is that what you want to do? 

Repost exactly what you want to do so we don't have to keep "correcting" things.

Hold on please. I'd like to know more about this #124 ranking? I don't see where that came from

In WCB1, on the Extension Value Scale, there is only a single category for P.  There is no distinction between SP and RP, so when the contracts of all the P are categorized to establish market value, there were 174 P under contract.  As always, Fantrax rankings are used, the P rankings were updated like all the other positions in WCB2, so the P ranking was used,  and in those rankings Britton has a rank of 124.
