Waiting Until Free Agency

motorox8 · **Posted:** Sat Nov 15, 2008 9:00 pm

My guy when he started had to wait 6 years before he could Declare Free Agency. I'm in my 4th year now and I want to test the market but I can't. When it come time to Contract Renewels next season and I keep hitting NO to all the offers will I become a Free Agent? :!:

you have to wait all 6 years until you can declare free agency

There is no point to really declare free agency. The offers you get in FA is way less like 50% than the one your team offers you. Try FA if our team sucks

Not all the time. Most of the deals i've seen were equal to my current team's offer. Some were longer contracts and only one was significantly less money and 6 years long. It's worth a shot. I would take one of the offers in the first week because there will be less interest in the second week and it may not be with a team you'd want to play for.

Thanks alot, I'll probaly just save before my contract offer and just go into FA and see what there is and if i don't like it go back and sign the offer with my current club.

You can get 30 mil from your current team if you have Darryl at 5 stars in your 1st year of FA. Other teams would offer you long term contacts at like 22-27 mil.

Yea, one of my friends has Darryl as his agent and has a big contract. I have my game pretty hard though so hes not much of a star and also I never brought this guy through success mode so hes not that great. The only thing he is really good at is Stealing he broke Hendresons record at 21.

You call 21 stolen bases amazing?? My Mylife guy stole 120 in 1 year!

no, he means he broke the record at age 21.

I broke the record at 21 too!

my guy is getting up there, in his rookie season...
he has an F in power though, so he doesn't have a single HR, but a .400 batting average (i've been scouted now)

motorox8 · **Posted:** Sat Nov 22, 2008 12:53 pm

Wow, thats a good rookie season. I played like 60 games my rookie season because of how hard I have the game on but still very nice.

theppman · **Posted:** Sat Nov 22, 2008 2:04 pm

Yeah, until around 3rd year it's impossible to get big hits.
