Well, I actually like the idea of setting salary caps for the next two seasons and keep this years as it is. Even with trading it is going to be kind of difficult and since working with some outrageous contracts makes things to complicated to get things done soon (I am already behind in making the team roster due to work and complexity of contracts). So i would vote for setting future caps and leave this seasons as it is.

Question on cureent salaries..I got Bronson Arroyo and he is paid 6.5 to 7.5 mill for 3 more years but he has deferred compensation..Are we going to build it into the years on his contract or I will be paying him until 2020 or whatever is in the contract?

and honestly i think it needs to stay at at least 200 for the offseason..right now i have all of my starting hitters, 2 SP and some RP and my salary is already at 152..yes i do want to get it down but i think you need to give at least one full season before that is mandated only because i will be at about 175 when it is all said and done

So is there a cap hit for ANY players at this time? I understand that there is no cap hit for Arb and EXtention and FA players... right now.....is there a cap hit for are players that ARE under contracts for 2012,2013,etc etc. ex B. Zito? I would think there IS a cap hit of 1/2 the contract each year right now, but just asking to be 100% on it all.....

k got the contract here: Barry Zito 12:$19M, 13:$20M,14:$18M club option ($7M buyout)
if you dropped him u would owe 9.5 for 12, 10 for 13 and not have to worry about the option
