Auction salary question Jan 22, 2019 9:09:12 GMT -6

Sorry to be so picky, but for my clarification:
1) If a player won at auction is traded during the season, does he keep his auction salary on his new team, or does it revert to 2018 real-world salary?
2) If a player won at auction is released and subsequently added as a free agent, same question?

Thanks.

Hey HOU,

1. The player will keep his auction salary, even if you trade him to another team.

2. The player will retain his auction salary for the remainder of the season, even if he is released and subsequently added as a free agent during the season.

Good questions, thanks for asking!

Houston Astros: You know, when it says that you have 24 hours to make a pick, it doesn't mean you HAVE to wait 24 hours to make the pick. Just in case anyone was wondering.

New York Yankees: Haha yep I'm with you on that HOU. Hopefully we'll be able to pick up the pace now that we are underway. Feb 4, 2019 14:34:06 GMT -6

Atlanta Braves: Look like someone spammed in our "auction salary question" section. douche Feb 21, 2019 17:18:44 GMT -6

Washington Nationals: Yeah lol, what the heck😑 Feb 21, 2019 20:26:38 GMT -6

New York Yankees: Yeah I took care of that. Stupid 👎 Feb 21, 2019 22:13:41 GMT -6

Atlanta Braves: where do we make our claims for the minor league players? Is there a priority list or is it first come first serve Feb 26, 2019 12:33:31 GMT -6

New York Yankees: I already emailed ATL but just so everyone knows, minor league claims are first come first serve (like regular free agency) Feb 26, 2019 17:42:24 GMT -6

New York Yankees: And you make the move on Fantrax (also like regular free agency) Feb 26, 2019 17:43:00 GMT -6

New York Yankees: Hey ATL, Dennis Santana was a free agent claim last year, so he's not eligible for demotion to the minors. Mar 5, 2019 0:08:16 GMT -6

New York Yankees: He's only eligible for the Taxi Squad (if he doesn't make the Dodgers' active roster or is suspended) Mar 5, 2019 0:09:06 GMT -6

New York Yankees: As a result, I had to reverse your claim of Pomeranz Mar 5, 2019 0:09:51 GMT -6

New York Yankees: Also, to remind everyone, please post all minor league promotions/demotions in the Minor League Callups/Demotions Board here on the Pro Boards Mar 5, 2019 0:25:15 GMT -6

Atlanta Braves: If a player is on the taxi squad and gets promoted to mlb... how long can we keep him on the taxi squad? Apr 23, 2019 15:14:54 GMT -6

Houston Astros: All season. Apr 24, 2019 7:05:08 GMT -6

Atlanta Braves: thanks Apr 24, 2019 13:43:37 GMT -6

Atlanta Braves: Yo Commish, how come we can't trade draft picks on fantrax? Has that option been disabled? Jul 29, 2019 12:08:59 GMT -6

New York Yankees: Yeah, I'm not sure if you can actually select minor league draft picks through Fantrax at the moment. Just make sure you post the trade here to include the picks and/or include any traded picks in the comments section of the trade when proposing/accepting Aug 2, 2019 4:09:38 GMT -6

New York Yankees: Through Fantrax Aug 2, 2019 4:09:47 GMT -6

New York Yankees: I'm also tracking the picks on the salary spreadsheet (Minor League Picks and Claims worksheet/tab) Aug 2, 2019 4:10:59 GMT -6

Atlanta Braves: Yo commish, I believe you can. I'm in another league that allows trading of draft picks. Figure it'd be easier for you to keep track of. Aug 19, 2019 14:37:56 GMT -6
