Error calculating free agent costs
Free Agents signed to minor league contracts, for example 2,000,000 to a minor league contract, are not having the $2,000,000 out of the team's finances. I had 52 million available, signed several minor league free agents for a total of 5 million. Before the FA's signed the money was taken out of my available funds, after they signed the money was back in my available funds.

The bonus component of FA willing to sign minor league contracts is flawed. No team IRL would give a bonus anywhere near the MLB minimum to a player not worth the min MLB salary.

some players are asking for say 470,000 in signing bonus, they are usually players who have not been in the majors yet and have some decent potential. I agree that no team would pay 2 million for such a player but every now and then an above average player is available and you have another team bidding against you driving the price up. As I said, the money you pay them is not taken out of your budget.

As for the contract thing, yeh that should be easy enough to fix. I've also had it happen that my amateur IFAs weren't counted properly against my available money, not sure if that's related to this issue. |
