Extensions Rule - JMaineD - 09-13-2018
There were recent talks of tightening finances, this could help. How about we use the rules for Free Agent contracts and apply them for all extensions. Specifically, this would impact the movement of relievers.
1yrs - No Minimum
2yrs - 1.0M
3yrs - 5.0M
4yrs - 7.5M
5yrs - 10.0M
6yrs - 12.5M
7yrs - 15.0M
Lately, I've been seeing relievers being locked up at prime bargain rates:
- RP Cory Thayer 80 overall -- Signed 4yrs 4m (2082)
- RP Emmanuel Becena 81 overall -- Signed 5yrs 3.1m (2082)
- RP Simon Coffey 79 overall -- Signed 3yrs 3.8m (2082)
- RP Mitchell Meinhart 80 overall -- Signed 4yrs 5.6m (2080)
- RP Jason Quan 77 overall -- Signed 6yrs 3.5m (2077)
The drawback to something like this would be a ton of 1 year extensions in the offseason, but this should shake things up properly to open up the reliever market.

The whole point of signing an extension is to get a good deal or a “Hometown” discount. I don’t thinking making it cost more to resign players makes sense. FA has been strong enough without unnecessary tweaks.

Let's compare a recent big FA signee, RP Brad Smith, with a 4 year extension player, RP Mitchell Meinhart
Brad Smith 4 years 22.5m
Mitchell Meinhart 4y 5.6m
I would think that if Meinhart signed a 4 year 7.5m extension, that is still a big "hometown" discount.

I have to agree with Mzy. Plus this file just doesn't generate that many quality RP. Since most SP and position players clear minimum rates, as you said, this would simply end up penalizing the teams who actually do manage to draft or otherwise obtain good RP.
