How to use tiers! A tutorial!

Per the rules:

 

HOW TO KEEP YOUR PLAYERS

There will be 2 levels of contracts each player can be signed to:

Level 1: Contract Value
Level 2: Contract Extension

Level 1: The Contract Value is the amount you bid on your player which essentially sets his value. This is a 1 year contract.

Level 2: The Contract Extension can be a contract ranging anywhere from 1-5 years, with your player either getting a raise, or his contract value remaining the same based on the values determined by his placing in the league scoring.

In order to sign your player, you must give him a pay increase. This increase will be a percentage of his current salary and is based on how well he performs in the most recent season. This performance rating is based on the most recent MLB season. The percentage increase will be rounded up to the nearest $0.25. Rankings are by position, for all players eligible at that position.

Position Players:

Ranked 1 through 4: 40% increase 1st year, 20% increase subsequent years MIN RAISE: $2.00
Ranked 5 through 8: 30% increase 1st year, 10% increase subsequent years
Ranked 9 through 15: 20% increase 1st year, 0% increase subsequent years
Ranked 16+: 0% increase ALL YEARS

Outfielders:
Ranked 1 through 6: 40% increase 1st year, 20% increase subsequent years MIN RAISE: $2.00
Ranked 7 through 12: 30% increase 1st year, 10% increase subsequent years
Ranked 13 through 30: 20% increase 1st year, 0% increase subsequent years
Ranked 31+: 0% increase ALL YEARS

Pitching:
Ranked 1 through 4: 40% increase 1st year, 20% increase subsequent years MIN RAISE: $2.00
Ranked 5 through 8: 30% increase 1st year, 10% increase subsequent years
Ranked 9 through 15: 20% increase 1st year, 0% increase subsequent years
Ranked 16+: 0% increase ALL YEARS

 

 

Examples!

JP looks at his roster and sees he has Asdrubal Cabrera at 2.25 this past season and next season he is an RFA. Well now he needs to decide if he wants to sign him and for how long. For the example we will assume he will sign him for the max, 5 years. He then goes to the Short Stop thread and we see that he finished in Tier 2.

So Asdrubal Cabrera will get a 30% increase for 2012 and 10% each year after.

His starting salary is 2.25.

2.25 + 30% is .675 so round up to $.75

2.25 = 10% is .225 so round up to $.25.

A 5 year contract will look like this

3/3.25/3.5/3.75/4

 

Let's say he finished in Tier 3. That is a 20% raise and no raise for addition years.

 

So 2.25 + 20% = .45 so round up to $.50. A 5 year contract will just be 2.75 for 5 years.

 

If he didn't make a tier than the player can be signed up to 5 years at the original 2.25.

 

What happens if I have a player who falls into tier 2 at one position but tier 3 in another position?

From the Rules:

In a situation where a player is due a raise at a higher Tier due to being eligible at a position where he may not be eligible for in future years, the following will apply:

For example:
Joe Smith is eligible at SS and 1B. He plays only 1B all year, and media reports indicate he is not likely to switch back to SS anytime soon.

His stats are such that he is the 12th-ranked 1B, but 6th-ranked SS.

Normally he would be due a Tier 2 raise for his SS ranking, but the Manager may apply to have him be eligible at Tier 3, for his 1B ranking.

The Commish will grant the exception only if, according to Yahoo's eligibility requirements (including future expectations based on media reports) suggest the player will no longer be eligible at that position in the next few years.
If an exception is granted, and the player signed, the contract will not be revisited, even if the player ends up eligible at the alternate position.

A manager may apply for an exception for multiple positions. i.e. a player who qualifies at 1B/2B/SS, but will only be eligible at 1B next year.

 

Feel free to post other questions.

Clarification:

Melky Cabrera's 2011 salary was $0.25. He finished in Tier 2 for Outfielders.


2013 would be $0.25 + 30% is 0.075 so round up to $0.25

So his salary in 2013 would be $0.50?


So a 5-year contract would look like this:

$0.50/$0.75/$1.00/$1.25/$1.50

Wow, Melky was tier 2? Good contract. And yes, you are correct. 30% is 0.075, round up to $0.25. 10% for the rest of the years is 0.025, round up to $0.25.
