I don't think this is exactly correct - an MLB offer can be made for less than $327 a year.




Thanks for bumping an old thread. They have fixed the 40 man glitch.

40-Man Roster Update

Until this point, we have allowed users to remove players with minor league options from the 40-man roster at will. This will be updated to correspond with MLB rules. In order to remove ANY player from the 40-man roster, he must pass through waivers. This is an important change and it makes signing prospects to major league deals much more meaningful.


You can still offer IFA's ML contracts, but you by the time they are ready options will be gone.



By the way Opie, you lurked on this site for 4 years before you purchased a team. That is a long time to research....
