November 16, 200619 yr How would Joe be classifed as a Free Agent? (Type I/II)? I was just wondering what type of draft compensation we would receive (if any).
November 16, 200619 yr Author Thanks!! And since the new CBA does not take draft compensation into effect until 2007, I guess we're still eligible to receive 2 picks in the first round? (Team that signs Joe and a sandwich pick)? Correct me if I'm wrong...
November 16, 200619 yr That's correct. The changes will effect the 2008 draft. Type C's will be eliminated for compensation while the designations of what makes up a Type A or B will change. Type A's, now the top 30%, will be limited to the top 20% next year while Type B's will go from 31-50% to 21-40%.
November 16, 200619 yr Mainly because the Elias Rankings reward quantity not quality as it relies on a number of counting stats including plate appearances and innings pitched.
November 16, 200619 yr is there a list? I'd guess JoBo is our only FA worthy of comp picks...Sounds like the Indians want him. that's a decent 1st rounder and a sammich pick!

This might have been changed with the new CBA from last year, but any pick in the top 15 is not eligible to be given away as comp. We would receive only a sandwich pick. These are the teams we'd want to sign JO-BO: 16. Texas Rangers 17. Houston Astros 18. St. Louis Cardinals 19. Philadelphia Phillies 20. Boston Red Sox 21. Toronto Blue Jays 22. Los Angeles Dodgers 23. San Diego Padres 24. Los Angeles Angels 25. Chicago White Sox 26. Oakland Athletics 27. Detroit Tigers 28. Minnesota Twins 29. New York Mets 30. New York Yankees
November 16, 200619 yr damn. thanks for the info. I doubt any of those would surrender a first pick to sign JoBo. Last I heard the Indians were the favorites to land JoBo to fill the closer role.
November 16, 200619 yr Joe Borowski-R- Marlins Nov. 16 - 11:26 am et The Indians and Giants have joined the Phillies, Blue Jays and Red Sox among teams interested in signing free agent Joe Borowski. Cleveland might have an advantage here. Indians GM Mark Shapiro is the son of Borowski's agent, Ron Shapiro. c/o rotoworld.com

Have we or will we ?

If we don't offer arbitration we don't get the compensatory picks and I would be very surprised if we offer Borowski (or Helms) arbitration so I don't see us getting compensatory picks.
