BZ 1527: FA signed below minimum salary, for 190,000/year

andoq · 06-26-2008, 01:23 AM

A free agent was signed by one of the AI computers for a two year deal worth a total of $380,000 - that's 190,000/year. I am playing with the standard MLB minimum of $390,000/year.

This was one the opening day of spring training, done with a league that was based on the MLB roster set that came in the patch. I made sure to correct all of the settings for the league, so financials are on and the minmum salary is set.

Can you try and offer a free agent a contract valued like that? Or does it say that the minimum salary is not being met?

No, I can't propose a similar deal. I tried several combinations, but couldn't find a way to propose any deal with a year under the minimum salary.

Can you find anything unusual about the player in question?

This is logged, it's BZ# 1527.

I had 15 or so guys like this, the only thing I saw was that none were drafted (maybe were all hidden players).
