NL-only extension decisions

[james33]

12 team NL-only, 5x5.

$5 per year of extension. So Byrd would be $1 for this year only, $6 through 2016, etc.

1) Marlon Byrd $1

2) Wilmer Flores $4

3) Shelby Miller $1

4) Kolten Wong $2

I'm leaning everyone one year extension (+$5 through 2016) except Wong two year extension.

---Byrd, Flores, Miller might each suck.
---Byrd K'd so much; he could be done?
---Not extending the young Flores and Miller could be mistakes as their 2016 value might be more than their 2015 value.

what's the penalty for cutting a guy after extending him?

[james33]

No penalty whatsoever. So if I were to extend Miller to $6, for example, and he absolutely stinks this year, I need not keep him next year; I just would've cost myself $5 of my $260 auction budget this year. $5 isn't completely trivial as a $20 OF is better than $15, a $6 is better than a $1, etc.

With this, I'd extend Miller for a year and Wong for two. And just keep the others at their prices.
