How many people don't use the IFA market? In my first season, I barely touched it. I think my biggest signing was sub 500k. 

Augusta Nationals (Rickey, Season 6)



Original- 2
Drafted- 2
FA- 6
ML Trade-12
Minors Trade, developed and promoted-2
IFA-1 (10m)

Syracuse Sicilians (Crapa, Season 22)

Drafted --4 (they were the 11, 11th, 17th and 113th picks of respective drafts)
Trade--12 (7 of the 12 were acquired when they were in the minors and played, at least some, in the minors for me)
FA--5 (all pitchers, all acquired as relievers, although one guy starts now)
IFA --4 
$13.0M==4.50 ERA over 742 innings as a starter/reliever.  Currently my #5 guy. Hes 37-43 with 22 saves. Wants 4X$5M in his third arb year.  Not sure if I'll do it)
$8.9==.258 avg. with 4 homers over 217 ABs as my BU catcher.  He won't make it another year.
$5.2==4.34 ERA over two seasons and 255 innings as a starter. He's 17-11 and my #3 starter.
$2.5=5.04 ERA over 457 innings as a starter/reliever.  24-23 with 8 saves. Will be his last year with me, I think.
