Accurate Minor League Options

Might anyone know, or have any insight, as to why the minor league options don't reflect the real life counterparts?

It seems as though 95% of the league has all 3 options available at the beginning of the 2022 season.

I mean, I’m not sure what you’re looking for. You asked about insight into why they aren’t accurate. That’s why

Re: Accurate Minor League Options

Having given us the ability to edit service time, I wish they would do the same with player options.

But its not easy to quantify. I don't blame SDS for not taking the time to chase all this info down.

1200 players on the 40-man rosters. How long would you last Google searching all that cr@p?!

It should 100% be an editable thing. I do kind of blame them a bit because it’s something you only have to input one time and then edit a couple players from year to year. Also considering how important options are to MLB franchises it is kinda an important thing

The problem is, you/whomever have to pinpoint when the player was added to the 40-man roster. If that info isn't available, there's no way to know, definitively how many options a player has used.

I'm not sure what info MLB and the MLBPA provides. I would hope service time and options are available to SDS?!

Anyway, just saying, I don't think this is as cut and dried as we'd like to think.

.. but hopefully this is editable at some point, that is the easiest solution, for sure.

I’m pretty sure Fangraphs has player options remaining listed for players
