Perfect example... Robinson Cano. You could make a huge argument that he's the Yankees franchise player right now. Came up with the Yanks, won a championship, by far their best offensive player... and he wants $305M!!!

Probably the best example is Joe Mauer. Grew up in Minnesota, took them to the playoffs, won an MVP, and then proceeded to take them out back for $184M over 8 years! That's $23M a year! All this after a season in which he only played 80 some games. Where's the hometown discount?

Discount was to have people actually use the rule. I dont care if its implemented ever.

core four fellas of which one left in free agency and three got massively overpaid to stay and here's the best part. none of them declined before age 35. because that what happens when you franchise a player. they never get worse. Lol they were all overpaid because they WERE franchise players. No real life franchise player plays for less than market value plus like 15%. The player has all the leverage in those situations. fella I agree I dunno if you thought I didn't but I do

This is my idea...
Franchise 1. Drafted and homegrown. No age requirements. Must be named Franchise player when they are brought up. Talents lock. Player goes through regular minimum and arby contract. Gets a 10 year contract at 20 million per or average of top 3 contracts at that position. Whatever is higher.
Franchise 2. Doesnt need to be drafted by team. No age requirements. Must be named Franchise player when they are brought up. Talents do not lock, but team gets 3 PD reversals over their career. Player goes through regular minimum and arby contract. Gets a 8 year contract at 18.5 million per or average of top 5 contracts at that position. Whatever is higher.
Core Players. Each team gets 2. Doesnt need to be drafted by team. No age requirements. Must be named Core player when they are brought up. Talents do not lock, but team gets 2 PD reversals over their career. Player goes through regular minimum and arby contract. Gets a 5 year contract at 15 million per or average of top 8 contracts at that position. Whatever is higher.

Obviously up to editing and tweaking. But its fun and reasonable IMO.

Only talents are locked. Its a good deal. Rare when really talented players get positive talents increases.
