MINOR LEAGUE FREE AGENCY
Teams that desire to sign a minor leaguer shall submit the name and his major league team system (to prevent mistaken identity) by Saturday midnight (EST) to the commissioner. If you are the only owner to list the player, he is yours immediately. If more than one team lists him, bidding will determine which team signs the player. Only the teams that submitted the player's name shall compete for the player.
A minor league player (See MINOR LEAGUE QUALIFICATIONS AND SALARY) will only be bidded on if two or more owners claim the same player. This bid will not be the salary but rather a one time signing bonus that will count against the winning owner's salary cap. Signing bonuses will start at $100,000.
The player will be claimed officially by a team after a period of 48 hours has passed without a bid.
Team needs to sign the player through a team transaction and by updating their roster page.
ABANDONED BIDS PENALTY
MINOR LEAGUE FREE AGENCY
After 48 hours has passed with no further bidding, the high bidder must sign the player. The high bidder has 3 days to sign the player. If no action is taken, the player will be considered to have been waived. The high bid (signing bonus) will be charged against the waiving team. The Commissioner shall post the player in Waivers. The player's status is then governed by the rules in Waivers.
