Buyout:
One buyout per season. Buyout player only during the offseason will consist of 100% of their average salary remaining.
Ex: C. Kershaw 24m/2016 24m/2017 29m/2018 UFA/2019
Avg. Salary: 24+24+29=77M 77M/3 years left on contract=25.67M
Buyout for 2016: 25.67M
You would pay 25.67M for 2016 and then the contract will be off the books for future seasons.
Waivers:
During Offseason:
25% of salary for each year on contract:
Ex: C. Kershaw 24m/2016 24m/2017 29m/2018 UFA/2019
Waiver Penalty: 6.0m/16, 6.0m/17, 7.25/18
You DO NOT receive a discount for a veteran that retires. You pay the above percentages, unless a player no longer plays because of death. If a player dies while under contract with you, you may waive them free of charge.
During Season:
50% of salary for each year of contract:
Ex: C. Kershaw 24m/2016 24m/2017 29m/2018 UFA/2019
Penalty: 12.0/16 12.0/17 14.5/18
MLB Claiming of Waived Players:
We will follow real MLB waiver rules:
If waived by NL team, and claimed by one NL and one AL, the NL team will receive player. If claimed by multiple NL teams, and one AL, the NL team with the weakest record at the time of the claim receives players. If claimed by no NL teams, but claimed by AL teams, the AL team with the weakest record gets player.
MLB Revocable Waivers:
If you place a player on waivers, you may rescind the waiver request, within the 24 hour window of the original post, if claimed by another team.
40 Man Roster Removal:
To remove a player from your 40 man roster he must be run through waivers. You will need to post if you are DFA'ing him (putting him in your minors) or releasing him outright.
Ex.
Ian Desmond (DFA and remove from 40 man)
OR
Ian Desmond (Release) -- penalty 7.5-2019, 7.5-2020, 4-2021
If player is claimed please see above for your options
