Also, very true.
Given the climate of money everyone has, a guy like Rojas is easily worth $20-25Mil, but not for 6 years, into his 40s. That's a Pujols contract right there.

he might be the pujols of the league though....as a counter argument.

Risk/Reward!!
If he plays like Telvest into his 40s, he'd be worth 6 Years/$150-180.

I'm guessing you have to know by next sim, if free agency starts.
Would be nice if there was a deadline before that though.

That makes no sense because, to me, closers are a dime a dozen. I've got three on my ML roster and two serve as set-up/relief that are rated over 70 and at least 2-3 more in my minors that are the same.

I've never even looked at the USBL.
I just wish that as the season is approaching, much like in real life, a guy is going to take the best deal out there, even if it's way less than his initial demand.
That being said, it's an entire new game, '12, so maybe that is fixed. We will find out soon, I guess.
Looking over it now, I don't see it happening. Half the good guys in free aren't playing in our league this season.
