Offers for Cruz to be made in this thread. Oakland Cubs will have 48 hours to match the highest contract offer. Any restructuring of the highest contract offer (without changing total dollars or AAS) must be made at the time the match is posted.

Miami's offer is invalid. Please check RFA bidding guidelines. AAS of $20M requires minimum 5 year deal. High offer reverts to Washington.

I stand corrected. Miami has invoked the Jamie Moyer rule and his contract offer is valid. I believe this is a DD first! Cruz is 36 years old.
Jamie Moyer rule for bidding on older players
A GM may offer a player a contract that keeps an older player under contract until the season that the player turns 39 years old. So although an $18+ million contract normally requires at least 5 years, one could offer a player that is 36 a three year deal at $18 million. Or a 38 year old player could receive a one year deal at over $18 million if that makes more sense.
