Hello, and welcome to the Front Office Guide, a fan’s guide to information and discussion surrounding the happenings ‘off the field’ in professional sports We’ll be discussing all of the dealings of the front offices of Major League Baseball, National Football League, National Basketball Association, and National Hockey League teams. We’ll talk contracts, trades, drafts, player movement, General Managers, agents, collective bargaining agreements, sports business, and much, much more across all four of the major sports leagues.
Several distinct features will be available here as well. This includes a monthly calendar, to keep track of the major events in each sport from free agency and trade deadlines to draft and reporting dates. We’ll also have a ‘Definition of the Month,’ or ‘DOTM,’ where we’ll not only explain several front office functions, but we’ll take a detailed look how and why those maneuvers are made, complete with real life examples. We’ll define and discuss things such as salary pools, draft pick compensation, Rule V, Group Five, Exclusive Rights, mid-level exceptions and more.
I hope you find things both informative and stimulating. Thank you for visiting and I look forward to your posts.
