oracle_man Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 (edited) yun ang tanong ko sa experts....whats the deal with sandwich picks and such... kasi parang may nababasa ako na once a player becomes a free agent...the teams may get a pick...(parang sa varitek debacle nabasa ko yun...i may be wrong)..compensatory pick nga ba yun? how does that work in MLB....yun nalang ang part na di ko ma figure out Each offseason, FAs are rated based on their performance from the last 3 seasons into A, B & C, with A being the highest. If the team offers arbitration to an FA (only the current team can offer), but the player chooses to sign up with another team, the team losing the FA will get compensation picks based on the rating of the player and the overall standing of the team getting the FA. Teams ranked 30 to 16 (or 1st pick to 15th pick in the next draft) will never lose those picks to compensation; what they lose when they get a rated A FA is their 2nd round pick. Let's have a concrete example. The M's lost Raul Ibanez to the Phillies. Raul was rated A FA. So the Phillies because they won't be drafting in the first 15 overall picks, lost their 1st round pick to the Mariners. The Mariners will also have a sandwich pick between the 1st and 2nd rounds in addition to the original pick of the Phillies. I will research further for FA with B rating.

oracle_man Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 (edited) Some corrections regarding compensation picks. C rating have been scratched. Ratings are based on the FAs' previous 2 years of playing. From Wikipedia: Compensatory Picks Teams can earn Compensatory picks in the draft based on departing free agents. Free Agents are ranked by the Elias Sports Bureau based on their previous two years of playing, and against players of similar positions. Players are categorized as either Class A or Class B, or they fall into the category of all other players. Below is a description of each free agent class and the compensation the free agent's former team received when the player signs with a different team. • A Class A free agent is ranked in the top 20 percent of players at their positions. A team that signs a Type A player gives its top draft pick to the club that the player is leaving. The "losing" club also receives a supplemental pick in the "sandwich" round between the first and second rounds. [24] • A Class B free agent is ranked below the top 20 percent but in the top 40 percent of players at their positions. A team that loses a Type B player receives a supplemental pick, but the signing team does not lose any picks.[24] • All other players, who carry no compensation at all. There had previously been a third class of "Type C" players, but that was eliminated in the new CBA.[24] To earn a compensatory pick, a free agent must either be signed before the arbitration deadline in early December, or be offered arbitration by their former team but still sign with someone else. Compensatory picks that one team gives another via this method are the highest available pick that team has. If a team owes two other teams draft picks via Type A free agents, the team whose departing player had a higher score gets the higher ranked pick. A team cannot lose picks it has earned via compensation. Also, the first 15 picks in the draft cannot be lost via compensation, so a team that is in that rank would give up their second round pick. The order of the supplemental round between the first and second rounds is determined by inverse order of the previous year's standings. All the Type A picks are done first, and then the order resets for all the Type B compensation picks. Teams can also earn compensation for unsigned picks from the previous year's draft. If a team doesn't sign a first or second round pick, they will get to pick at the same slot plus one the following year. For instance, if the team with the #5 pick does not sign that player, they would have the #6 pick the following year. The regular draft order would continue around those picks. For compensation for not signing a third round pick, teams would get a pick in a supplemental round between the third and fourth rounds. If a team fails to sign a player with one of these compensated picks, there is no compensation the following year. Edited March 27, 2009 by oracle_man Quote Link to comment
