$500,000 per year (1 or 2 years)
$500,000 1 year contract offer is the absolute minimum.
$1,000,000 contract for 2 years ($500K per) is a 2 year minimum bid.
Contract offers of 3 years or more need to have a minimum AAS of $1M, so at least $3M total over 3 years.
Minimum raise from previous offer is $25,000.
There are different Restricted FA bidding guidelines (listed in our Constitution) but those will not apply until next offseason.

from the league rules: No single year can deviate more than 40% from AAS. So a contract with 5 million dollars AAS can only range between 3 million and 7 million for any one year. ANNUAL SALARY ALLOCATION LIMITS WITHIN A CONTRACT: Back-end loading of contracts is a concern of the league. Those contracts sure feel good to the bid winner since those latter years can get loaded up, allowing current year salary to stay lower and manageable and help prop up AAS. To avoid back-end loading of contracts, the total of salaries in the last 1/2 of the contract (in years) may not exceed 70% of the total contract dollars. If a contract covers an odd number of years, 1/2 of the middle year of the contract is counted in the last 1/2 of the contract.

Guys, when I wrote this rule I actually meant for the minimum raise to be $250,000 ($0.25M) - NOT $25,000 ($0.025M). Everybody seems to be raising at least $250,000 so far so I'm hoping this is not a problem to fix my rules language.
If anyone has an issue, reply here. If not, let's go with a MINIMUM RAISE of $250,000, or $0.25M.
Thanks. Nice job so far everyone.

that seems a little high for players at 600 K for example

True. Then disregard my previous post. It was probably those $600,000 players I was thinking about then when I initially typed $25K raise.

PLEASE do not post in a free agent thread if you're not adding a bid. It throws off the timestamp

Joseph the prices are not out of whack. Think about it if there were half as many teams in MLB and they were all encouraged to spend to their cap max of 175M.

Just a reminder, you have 48 hours (from the time you win the player) to reallocate a salary in accordance with the above rules
