12/01: Draft Pick Compensation
David Pinto at Baseball Musings points out a
handy-dandy list from Scout.com of the Type A & Type B free agents that are out on the market, who signed them and what draft picks the new team will lose. He's right about one thing - those Angels really love giving up supplementals. Something else I didn't know was that the Mets had to give up a first rounder for Moises Alou. Also, Ron Villone is a Type B free agent and nets the Yankees a draft pick (2nd round supplemental) if they lose him after offering arbitration. Honestly, after the implosion at the end of last year, I'd rather have the pick.
