Yeah definitely, this board has a problem with deduction so I should have fully explained what I meant.

How I feel every time I read OU's posts:
When I say 7 years, it is implied I mean how long it takes to qualify for the 10 year rule.
The "got him out just in time" was a dumb joke, quale said "he wasn't close"
I thought he was just being dense so I doubled down and said "7 years is cutting it too close" as another joke
"It's 10 years" after he just posted the rule and I talked about reading it afterwards. Therefore I knew the rule wasn't 7/5 due to its name being 10/5 and quale posting the actual rule on the page before.

Watch out, he'll start attacking you for "not reading".
Blame Wikipedia.
Found an example of a stud prospect that didn't pan out:
Sergio "Wild Card" Tovar
Looks like he actually tore his rotator cuff a couple times which killed his progression.

Here to fix the cable
Look at his history- he lost a bunch of his stuff rating long before the shoulder problems.
Yeah...he went from 80 POT stuff to 65 POT pretty quickly....however he had reached 65 current stuff at like 20 years old...which is still impressive. When he tore the cuff the first time, he lost his control potential (65-55) and when he tore it the 2nd, he lost the progress he had made on his current ratings (65-55 stuff). He just seems to have progressed too early and not progressed far enough. His ratings drop in the past few years looks like a 34-35 year old...not a 26 year old.
I think he is thinking of Switzerland
Oh you can deduce that can ya?

What's the contract?
I don't think it ever got organized enough for a vote. I guess a TO and a VO he only hits if you want him to are kind of the same deal so it doesn't bother me too much after thinking about it.
Yeah and he hasn't hit 80 IP in 3 years. It's just an ability to control whether they want to keep him or not without paying a TO

The thinking was to run a 4 man SP rotation. He'd see 70+IP easy, unless injury or he outright is below a 70era+. Wasn't meaning to 'game' the process/contract rules.
I know you weren't. But it is easy to game the system that controls whether a guy will sign with you or not if you offer those deals. So while it's cool for your specific contract, it could be abused down the road

Could see that. What'd be fair?
We didn't have an offseason rule thread this year. This'll prolly be the only amendment.
While this is true, a VO runs the risk of you losing him if he doesn't reach those marks. You could always extend mid-season though which would buy out that VO.
Youre good, its a know it when you see it thing unfortunately. His contract is fine tho to me especially after hearing the explanation
Exactly

I'm a lot more okay with it after sleeping on it. I did get a little snarky in the video after stumbling over it. Seemed like an easy way to sign a guy you don't plan to keep. Fig's rationale makes sense - an SP is easily worth 4.3M. But now we all know another way to structure a contract.
