Another question... during spring training, I signed a minor league free agent with some big league experience, who I intended to stash in AAA for insurance. Lo and behold, I had an injury and was forced to add him to the 40-man and big league roster. I do not want him to be automatically renewed at $327K for next season... will he be, or are minor league free agents only signed for a single year?

If you demote him before rollover, his salary the following season could revert to $54K, ***uming he is pre-arb. This was not always the case, but I have two former ML regulars in Mays who've spent two consecutive seasons in AAA. During the rollover from S6 about three months ago, their salaries dropped.

The best quote i've seen.

Pay no attention to IdioT, as he's clearly in love with me. I told you already, I'm not interested Mike.

I'm in preseason for my first-ever league and I found this to be extremely helpful. Would've been nice to know a few of these things before I made some crucial pre-season decisions, actually. I would hate to see this thread unpinned.
