I know Yoan Moncada will be a heavily bid on player this week. Remember that he signed a MINOR LEAGUE DEAL so he will receive an AAS contract offer. Please understand how these work an AAS offer should be sent and please understand how AAS contracts work. Ask questions if you don't understand.
From the rules:
"Minor Leaguers are to be offered ONLY an offer indicating an AAS amount - NO years, total contract or annual breakdown is allowed. Any bids placed on Minor League Players with yearly breakdowns will be invalid. Like with MLB player bidding, the highest AAS wins the player. The player will receive this salary until either 1) said player has used all three of his prospect protected (PP) years or 2) said player is dropped by the GM
Example #1:
Red Sox offer OF Byron Buxton (0/6) AAS of $500k.
*** Please Note that the $500k salary that Buxton is receiving based on the Free Agent salary will replace his PP years until the Prospect salary scale is greater than his given AAS in the bid.
So for this example:
- In year 1 Buxton would make $500k instead of the $300k he was slotted to make.
- Year 2 Buxton will make $500k.
-In year 3 his salary will jump to $1m the way it would on the normal prospect scale.
Example #2: Let's say the winning bid for Buxton is above $1m dollars.
Red Sox offer OF Byron Buxton (0/6) AAS of $1.5m.
-Years 1-3 after Buxton's 1st ML qualified year he will make $1.5m per year.
-Years 4-6, Buxton's base salary on his performance scale will also be $1.5m."
