Sorry, can't help you with that. But I play the Yanks and the draft picks have been taking from me.

Thanks for the tips...

I used to juggle middle relievers between my MLB and AAA squads alot until I found out that this year, they'd possibly have to clear waivers...

you should automatically get the Sandwich pick (supplemental) regardless of A/B status. However, for Type A, if say, the Yankees do what they did this winter, in signing Sabathia, Teixeira, and Burnett... there's only 1 1st round pick available, so only one of those teams is getting that pick (the angels did). so perhaps this is happening in your franchise?

Sorry but its very possible to get a fourth option. Delmon Young is a recent example.

You may want to be more familiar with the rules before you start giving out false info

OK, but that's an extra Option. Options do not reset. This special case only applies when a player has used all three options already and does not have five full seasons of professional experience.

I didnt say options reset.

1. A player who is currently entering his fourth or fifth pro season and already has been optioned in three separate years gets a fourth option.

2. A player who has missed one or more seasons to injury - meaning an entire season, or enough time to accrue fewer than 90 days on an active roster - may get a fourth option if, exclusive of those injury-shortened years, he has fewer than five full seasons in pro ball. A season in which he's on an active roster for 60 days or more and then gets hurt still counts as a full season, but a season in which he's hurt and then comes back and gets 60-89 days of service after the injury does not.

3. Seasons spent in short season leagues

Well, he was asking if Options reset every few years or something like that, I just said they don't.
