For the past few years we have had the QO offer at $12M. I think the QO is letting managers place more players on that instead of paying the big contracts. Therefore putting more players in auctions in the future. Should we leave it at $12M or raise it to $15M?

I think it makes sense to raise the QO. In real life, tags like these mimic an average of the highest salaries for that position, so I think ours should reflect that a bit more. This should positively affect the free agency pool moving forward

If you move it forward than the cap should also move forward

If you move it forward than the cap should also move forward What we have noticed is that most teams end the year with a abundance of salary cap left. Usually around $10-$30M at the end of the year that is never spent. So that is why we are deciding to also vote to make the salary cap stay at $140M or keep raising it $3M each year. My opinion is we keep raising it, it will eventually be a non-factor. |

One thing to remember, this would be a consistent $15M for now. The plan would not be to increase it each year. If we make the salary cap consistent, then this would be consistent as well.

So here again , if we raise the qo , and can except real life contracts , I feel we should keep increasing the cap ? I have already updated 3 teams so here are the 2021 salary cap leftovers from the other 17 teams. This was from salary cap at $137M. BOS: $29M CHC: $12M COL: $19M CWS: $74M HOU: $21M KC: $79M LAD: $58M MIA: $24M NYM: $46M NYY: $29M OAK: $28M PIT: $134M SD: $81M SEA: $24M SF: $28M TB: $19M TEX: $9M Now remember, in 2021 we got to carry contracts over so they didn't get the increased arbitration contracts like we normally do. We got to keep most of the 2020 salaries. Ken, look at your team on the Google Spreadsheet. Since your team is one of the 3 that I have updated, I put your salary cap at $140 across the board. So that is what the available cap would like being consistent at $140 for the next 5 years. |

Yeah, that is true. And it is depending on your strategy. We did create the $3M increase each year to allow for the inflation of salaries in real life. I just don't want to get to the point that it is too high and teams don't have to worry about cap space.

I think that depends. Maybe we can just check what the leagues yearly average salary is and double that?
I think it has to go hand in hand with the contracts we hand out in our league.

If we take the average salary of every player (including rookies, arbitration, and our own contracts), the average salary is $3.6M. Double that, and you would have $7.2M. |

What if we just went with what it is in MLB? They just announced it at $18.4m

We could obviously adjust that so it is even, but given we have a mix of MLB real contracts and contracts from free agency (which tend to be high), that could work. I am also fine with $15m but just saw this announced and thought I would suggest.

Well, then it makes no sense yet. Sorry. :-D |
