Here they are (pdf).

Which player do you think will have his earning power the most affected (percentage-wise) because of the compensation required?  Or, similarly, which player will have to sign the most incentive-laden deal, because he’s a Type A?  For example, last year, Orlando Hudson and Orlando Cabrera are the players who had to give up the most.

Finally: the comp system is stupid, ridiculous, and silly.  And in no way would this system exist if started from scratch today.  Why are those who are for the free market outside of sports so hell-bent on a restrictive market within sports?
