Okay, awesome. Another thing. What's the appropriate amount to offer in arbitration? Should I always offer 100% of demands?
I don't know if you guys remember, but 1-2 years ago there was a snafu with the HBD servers and the admins needed to roll the game back and re-sim the day. I imagine that must have really sucked for playoffs, imagine if you won a game 7 on the first play and then lost it on the replay, I'd be so mad....
But anyways, I bring this up because one of the leagues had to re-sim the arbitration period. One of the teams offered his arb guys the same amounts (70%) on both the first sim and and the second sim, and the first time he took it and the second time he did not. So based upon that outcome, we concluded that arb decisions are RNG instead of stat-based or offer-based or anything else like that.
So imo it's best to just offer everybody 70 and hope for the best
