The Name, MLB Team, and Position of the Player would be the title. Like: Joe Mauer - C - MIN
Then you must bid a total amount with the number of years, and how much per year with the AAS (Average Annual Salary):
For Example:
4 Years/50 Milliom
2013: 12M
2014: 13M
2015: 13M
2016: 12M
AAS: 12.5M
Do not break that rule^

So what would the winning bid be? Average annual salary or total salary?
For example one team bids 2yr/12m/24m and the other bids 3yr/10m/30m. Who has the higher bid?

First one. AAS is the deciding factor

What's to prevent someone from making a deal like
10 year, 1 mil total
100k/100k/100k/100k ...
AAS: 100k
years: 10

One more: increments for bidding up bids.
What is the scale? Usually it starts low at 100k and then increases as bids go up. For example, if the AAS is 2m, I can bid 2.1 and be a legal increase. But if it was at 10m, I have to bid minimum 10.5m.
Hope that makes sense.

I meant what's to stop someone from making a 10 year, 1 mil total bid? (100k each year)
Anything? Are there any mandatory increases in yearly salary as the years go up? For example, if you want to offer someone a 5 year deal, it has to be at least 2 mil a year...stuff like that.
If not, that's fine...just want to clarify.

Max contract length is 7 years, but other than that nothing is stopping anyone from signing anyone except cap room and bidding competition from other owners.

Also, I will be shortly posting an amendment about minor league free agents.

I know this was posted but just so I am clear. In this case:
Team A bids 2yr/12m/24m
Team B bids 3yr/10m/30m
The winner is team A based on the fact that the Avg Annual Salary is higher even though the second deal is for more total money. To put it another way:
Team C bids 1yr/26m/26m
Team D bids 7yr/25m/175m
Team C still has the winning bid correct because of the AAS? Just want to make sure I get this. Thanks!

This is a good point...I will likely look at coming up with some type of matrix to multiply values (like 1 year deals have to be worth 1.5 times more AAS than 5 year or something) with in the future, but for now thats how it works..
