Re: What is arbitration?

Just to follow up on this, if an arbitration deal isn't reached and the player goes into FA, don't you then get a first round pick for loosing that player?

No. Arbitration is only available because YOU still have the player's rights. If arbitration "isn't reached," it means that either you didn't offer it (meaning you're letting the player go) or the player doesn't offer it (not applicable in the game, since players always do). In the game, you get a compensatory pick if you lose a FA AFTER qualifying him. Meaning club control is over.

The game doesn't mimic MLB's rules in real life -- if you sing a qualified free agent, you don't lose your 1st pick, the other team just receives a compensatory one.

That's not necessarily true:

If the player chooses to reject the qualifying offer and signs with another club, his new team must give up their highest unprotected pick in the next MLB Draft. Top 10 picks are protected. The team that lost the player is then given a compensatory draft pick at the end of the first round and is based on the previous season’s standings.

In a nutshell:

Player: I'm worth x amount
Team: You're worth x amount
Arbitrator: We've taken both amounts into consideration, and you're worth x amount

Basically this. You get into the amount of times a player goes into arb by service time and all of that. Gets convoluted quickly.
