Pro Quality. Fan Perspective.
Around SBN: Can Tebow Say No To Anything?

The 2009 Elias Rankings have been released, and Ed Price of AOL FanHouse has a full list of the Type-A and B free agents.

* Chone Figgins qualifies as a Type-A, not a Type-B as projected.
* Melvin Mora qualifies as a Type-A, not a Type-B as projected.
* Vladimir Guerrero qualifies as a Type-B, not a Type-A as projected.
* Gregg Zaun from no compensation to Type-B.
* Jerry Hairston Jr. from Type-B to no compensation.
* Hideki Matsui from Type-B to no compensation.
* Aubrey Huff from Type-B to no compensation.

Does this change how we deal with both Figgins and Vlad?

Yep.

Figgie might not see as many offers now. And Vlad might see a bit more offers…

Happy Birthday to the ground!

Well we were never going to offer arbitration (I think!) so it's a moot point with Vlad.

But definitely it affects our Figgy talks, and for that matter any potential talks with Matsui are slightly juicier for the front office.

Nevermind what I said about Matsui, I was thinking Type B free agents worked differently than they do.

Great news about Figgy being Type A though.

I NEVER understood Figgy not being projected as a Type A

I mean he was 1 off the runs lead in the AL, 3rd in Stolen bases and played great defense.

How can that not be a type A????
