Well, as I said earlier in the thread, the actual financial settings are the same ones used by Orcin in "Orcin's Story" -- he now has right around 35 seasons of history and I've never seen anything get out of line in his dynasty report. I'll also be happy to update this thread after my first season, first free agency period and the like so you can see how everything evolved along those lines.

I'm at the ASB in the first season and that Wagner extension is the largest I've seen. He is 33 years old, and has been performing very, very well to this point. He was making $25M this year, and took $44M for 2 years on the extension. I'm quite happy with that type of deal, especially around a cornerstone star. Paying for age 34-36 seasons of Honus Wagner, and getting them for less than what you are paying him currently, is a solid, solid move.

And you're welcome! Though, seeing the response to this thread, I only wish I'd posted it sooner. Thank you for joining the discussion!
