Elias Rankings: AL Starters
Eddie Bajek attempts to project Elias rankings for American League starters here.
- Type A: A.J. Burnett, Andy Pettitte, Mike Mussina. Burnett seems likely to decline an offer of arbitration and sign elsewhere, giving the Blue Jays two draft picks as compensation.
- Type B: Tim Wakefield, Jon Garland, Paul Byrd. Garland seems most likely to decline an offer of arbitration and sign elsewhere, though Byrd is a candidate.

Tim, if a team offers a player arbitration and the player opts to retire, is there any type of compensation given to the team? I am directing this question towards Mussina and Pettite.

Garland would be a nice addition to the Braves rotation. I think we could get him for 10-12.

Scottsdale i dont think there is

ChiefTomahawk- I would assume the Braves would go after that frontline guy first, then patch up with Garland, since he's more of a 4th-5th starter.

Scottsdaleo1:
The Red Sox received a comp pick from the Indians when they signed Keith Foulke, even though he retired after they signed him during spring training of '07.
The rule is not right perhaps and should maybe be changed to that a comp eligible player should perform during the regular season.
Posted by: johns | October 13, 2008 at 12:26 PM
That only happened because Foulke signed with the Indians before retiring though.
