During a player's first seven years, they receive automatic extensions. The salary for players may increase each year they are extended in this manner. The amount of increase will be determined by their overall ranking compared to other players at their position. For this purpose, only primary positions will be considered (i.e., Mike Napoli qualified as a C in 2013, but only played 1B, so he would only appear in the 1B rankings). Rankings will be determined using ESPN Player Rater. Increases will be as follows:

Non-Tender
GMs may choose to non-tender arbitration-eligible players each year. These transaction will occur as part of the Contract Decision period at the end of the season and prior to the last day in January. Non-tendering will result in the immediate release of the player.
All arbitration extensions and Contract Options will be determined by the commissioners office after the season concludes. All contract decisions that teams need to be made for the next season will be posted for review by TBD with ALL decisions due by Dec. 15. Each FMLB team will be required to accept or decline/non-tender each contract posted. Contracts that are declined will then be available in the next free agency period beginning on Jan. 1.
