Reply to this thread to convert a multi-year contract into a single year contract. Useful for spending extra money now so that you can spend it on something else later.
Example:
Mariano Rivera has a $20M per year contract with 2 years remaining.
A GM can convert that two year contract into a 1 year contract. Mariano Rivera $20M (2015) -----------> Mariano Rivera $40M (2014)
If his contract had 3 years remaining: Mariano Rivera $20M (2016) -----------> Mariano Rivera $60M (2014)
Contracts may only be converted into single year contracts (essentially allowing owners to eat a contract in a rebuilding year).

Just came across this and feel it's a great idea. With my Royals team, I have a lot of pitchers with more on the way (Zimmer, Ventura, etc). Due to this pitching surplus, and my lack of depth, I feel this move makes a lot of sense to better position myself for free agency next season and beyond...
RA Dickey $12.5M (2015) --------> RA Dickey $25M (2014)

Royals selected RA Dickey in 5.24 of 2013 NFAD. Contract is correct. Change up your roster to reflect the current salary.

George Kottaras $.3M (2015) ---> George Kottaras $.6M (2014) Adam Moore $.3M (2015) ---> Adam Moore $.3M (2014) New Adam Moore contract should be $.6M (2014) With that correction, approved, change up roster/log.
