I suppose it has to figure into the overall calculus. If you know you have the guy for 'X' years and then will likely lose him, you don't want to bring him up until you are pretty sure he is ready to hit the ground running because you can't get a first year when he may scuffle or only play part time back at the other end when he may be an all-star. I'd say that consideration probably has to trump any of the carrots the league has set out for bringing guys up earlier. So maybe you offer the player a chance to come up earlier if he'll give you back a year or so at the other end. Edited 4 hours ago by gehringer_2 Quote
