Minor matters, Super 2 explanation

Here is the rule on Super 2s from Players Association website:

Q: When does a player become eligible for salary arbitration?
A: A player with three or more years of service, but less than six years, may file for salary arbitration. In addition, a player can be classified as a "Super Two" and be eligible for arbitration with less than three years of service. A player with at least two but less than three years of Major League service shall be eligible for salary arbitration if he has accumulated at least 86 days of service during the immediately preceding season and he ranks in the top 17 percent in total service in the class of Players who have at least two but less than three years of Major League service, however accumulated, but with at least 86 days of service accumulated during the immediately preceding season.


Because of the 17 percent clause, the date on Super 2s changes year-to-year. Homer Bailey, by the way, got 41 days of service last year.

From Jamie Ramsey:

The cold Kentucky rain came pouring down in Louisville last night…the Bats and Yanks will play 2 tonight…Homer Bailey expected to start…Chattanooga slams Mississippi…B.J. Szymanski with a 4-run homer…Tonys Gutierrez again reaches base safely (23 straight games)…Sam Lecure sharp in his 7.0 innings (4h, 1r, 2bb, 6k)…Sarasota loses a tough one to Clearwater…Travis Wood outstanding (7ip, 2h, 1r, 3bb, 3k)…Todd Frazier homers…Dayton loses to Lansing…the Dragons went 2-for-16 with runners on…Kevyn Feiner hits one over the fence…Phil Valiquette magnifique out of the bullpen.
