Once the amateur draft prospects are presented Type A and Type B compensation is gone...correct? Our world just had the amateur draft prospects come out and I want to sign a Type A player but don't want to lose my #1 pick. I can sign him, right? Or do I have to wait until after the draft happens? Thanks.

Correct. 

A Type A free agent went unsigned for that long?  I know the rankings sometimes give an inaccurate impression of player value, but how bad is this guy?  Or was he just asking for a ton of money?  Will you post his info?

It happens

I've seen it happen several times.  I've actually had Type A guys walk where I wanted them to be Type B. 

tedwmoore - his name is Edgar Lugo and I signed him so he is on my team if you'd like to check him out. If he was a Type B he would have been snapped up during the FA period, but since he was Type A he lasted until the draft prospects came out. Decent D, tons of speed type player, but not a great hitter which is why he lasted that long.

His salary is currently pretty low. Guess that's a result of lowered demands as time went on. He must have been asking for way too much money initially. Looking at his ratings and production, I'm surprised he was a Type A, but that's based on your particular league. He sure doesn't look like a Type A to me and certainly not someone I would give up a top draft choice to sign.

he was looking for $4MM plus I believe when FA started, so I got the pro-rated salary when I signed him. Torrone your thoughts are pretty much what the entire league was thinking I'm sure. I was picking in the late 20's and didn't want to give up that choice to sign him.
