My lax attitude towards paying hitters has cost me Alvarez and Walker.

I get Hartfords first round pick (Not in top 15) and I get a pick in the supplemental round. Then I go out and sign that closer, that i'm pretty sure was a Type A guy (from Omaha I think). My question is which 1st round pick Omaha gets. Does Omaha get my original 1st round pick or the pick that I would receive from Hartford? Didn't know if it went with highest pick, which would be the pick I received from Hartford, or if it just went off of my teams original picks.

We had this issue last season with Reign and I. I think the way it is supposed to go is he would get your actual pick based on where you finished in the standings.

But in the instance of Last season, Corey signed a Type A guy from my team, nad Corey was supposed to pick 17th. I picked 24th, and I signed a type A from Reign's team. I thought I would get 17 and Reign would get 24. But Reign cheated and got 17 while I got 24.

I am not saying guys should or shouldnt be signing type a or type b guys. I simply see many players who could be starting for 1/2 the league that rot in free agency

Just in time for impending cash restrictions. Guys are going to revolt!!!

I have a bunch of cash myself, but my 25 man is basically set, and there aren't many upgrades to make at the right value, so i may lose a lot of cash as well if cash limits come into play.

Exactly. one you aquire a type A 1st rounder, then its your pick. so just like shels case. it was no longer someone elses pick and not in the top 15 so thats what you lose.

ReignOnU wrote:Type A - Signing team loses their first round pick if it's after pick 15 (I think) or their second round pick if their first is before pick 15. The former team gets the signing teams pick, plus an additional first round pick in the compensation round.

Type B - Signing team loses nothing. Former team gets a first round pick in the compensation round.

In real MLB, if two Type As are signed by the same team, what should happen is the higher ranked Type A free agent based on the scoring system should be rewarded with the first round pick, while the other gets a second round pick. In OOTP it is based off of which free agent signs first.
