I would love to do it without salaries since this is my first year, but I realize that other people might like the added depth. So either way is fine with me.

I'd also far rather it without, it would make it a lot easier for me.

Why are you against a Salary system connor ?
If you would like I can draw up a salary system have maybe have the leagues take on it if we decide to go via that avenue

I voted for salaries thinking we could come up with a viable way to use them. If you can draw up a system that makes sense, I'm all for it.

MLB draft will consist for 20 rounds- 26 player Max roster ( so 6 other players can be signed via free agency)
Round 1 - $15/1year Round 2 - $12/2 Round 3 - $10/5 Round 4 - $9/4 Round 5 - $8/3 Round 6 - $7/2 Round 7 - $6/5 Round 8 - $5/1 Round 9 - $4/2 Round 10 - $3.5/4 Round 11 - $3.5/2 Round 12 - $3/3 Round 13 - $3/4 Round 14 - $2/1 Round 15 - $2.5/4 Round 16 - $2/4 Round 17 - $1.5/3 Round 18 - $1/2 Round 19 - $1/1 Round 20 - $1/1
MiLB Draft
All players drafted in MiLB draft will be equipped with a $1/6 year contract. The contract will only count against the $120 Salary cap if the player is called up. If the player is called up and then demoted the contract will still count against the $120 cap.
So let me know what you guys think

How much would it cost to release the player? How much would it cost to re-sign a player? Is there a maximum contract length? Can you cover a portion of someone's salary if they are traded?

Free Agents will be auctioned off, meaning every team has the chance to acquire a free agent. As in an auction, the highest bidder wins. However, to win the auction, your bid must stand the highest for at least 24 hours or 1 day. The minimum contract length is 2 years, except for players 34 years old or older, which may be given 1 year contracts. The maximum is 5 years.
Any team can re-sign there free agents by matching the highest bid.
Minimum Bid is $1, bids are increments of .25
Free Agent Signing Contract Lengths:
-Any Player Under 34 years of age recieves Minimum 2 year contract, no matter what the Salary is.
-Any Player signed to a $1-$3 contract can be signed for a max of 2 years.
-Any Player signed to a $3.25-$6 contract can be signed for a max of 3 years.
-Any Player signed to a $6.25-$9.75 contract can be signed for a max of 4 years.
-Any Player signed to a contract over $10 can be signed to a max of 5 years.
You can buy-out a players contract by paying 50% of his total contract.
For example: I have Vernon Wells, and am paying him $10/4 years. That is a total of $40 Million. I could buy him out by paying $20. He would then be whiped off my roster, and becomes a free agent. I would have to have the cap space to be able to do this.
So I would not have Vernon Wells on my roster, but I would still be paying him $20 Million total for the remainder of the season.
If my salaries totaled $80 before the buy-out. My Salaries would total $70 (minus the $10 Million I was paying Wells) + $20 Million I paid to buy out Wells = $90 Million.
To save money, it would be wise to buy-Out players after seasons end. If I wait till seasons end, Vernon Wells would then have a $10/3 year contract, and I would have to pay $15 Million instead of $20 Million to buy him out.
The GM buying out the player is unable to re-bid on this player until the 7 day period has passed.
As for cover a portion of a salary I'm sure we could do that too, but puts the onus on the admins for the league to keep track properly.
Resigning, essentially I was thinking that all players after the end of their contracts would go straight to free agency allowing all teams to bid on said player, but that being said, if the league wants to make a resigning fee/bonus then I'm sure we can arrange that too.

A lot of this sounds good to me. I'd like to have a system where you can re-sign your players before they hit free agency however, to make it seem more like a dynasty league.

Yeah thats cool we'd have to find an appropriate percentage though, there would have to be a set contract length on resigning players, say 3 years at maybe 150% of their original contract

I like that idea. Seems like an appropriate value.
Now, we have prospect limits. So will their contract kick in once they get one at bat or once they exceed the at bats limits? Would be like the super 2 issue in real baseball.

Re-signing proposal:
Add 10% extra from the current AAV of the contract for each year you'd like to extend the player
Example: You have Evan Longoria for $10 for the next 3 years but you'd like to extend him for 3 more beyond that. You'd sign him to an extension that kicks in at the end of his current deal for $13/3 more years. if you wanted to go 5 more years beyond the current deal you'd have to sign the extension at $15/5 years to kick in at the end of the current deal.

We could get some really insane decimal values with that system though.

Scott's proposal actually makes more sense since the extension is controlled by the salary as opposed to a set 3 year extension, but could we change it from 10% to say 25%? or 20%
Minor Leageurs Contracts kick in, as soon as they are promoted to the MLB roster.

Lol, makes the Admin's job a little harder, but it does make more sense then a set rate.
