steven wright - not on the player rater for 2015. .3 per year extension. extend for 3 years. current salary is .2M through 2017. extension would be .5M for 2018 through 2020.
martin prado - extend for one year, .3 per year. current salary is .3M. extension would be .6M for 2017.

Is Steven Wright eligible for an extension? Per Cots, he only has 1.089 years of service time.
Martin Prado cant be extended. He is in the last year of his contract so he needed to be extended prior to the start of the season.
Looks like Red Sox only has one extension left anyway as extensions were used on Yelich and Quintana.

Right, he was signed to a one year contract. I do not believe he can be extended.
League rules require all players entering the final year to be extended prior to the start of the season. If those players are not extended they will be free agents at the season's end.

my arguement is that the language is ambiguous in these particular cases. prado was signed to a one year contract in the off-season. he was not entering the last year of a multi-year contract, which is what i believe the rules contemplated. thus, prado should be eligible for an extension.

Rules on extensions are the same no matter what the length of the player's original contract was. If a player signed for 1 year as a free agent last offseason, he would have to be extended prior to the start of the season (the start of regular season games) - in this case, that's Prado. Because he was only signed for a year and wasn't extended before, he can't be extended now. If there was an option on his contract or he was signed for 2 years (as in, this year and next) he'd be eligible. It would be very strange to have anyone sign a 1 year deal and then extend a player, much easier to simply bid more than 1 year and/or put an option on. If you decided to release Prado today, you'd be free to re-sign him for however many years you'd like as long as nobody claimed him and you put him up for bid and won again.
As for Wright, cases like his are fairly clear. He fits the so-called "3 year rule" that suggests that players only after their 3rd year of our MLB eligibility (the offseason after a 0.3/0.5/1M when first ARB-eligible) are up for extensions.
Wright went 72.1IP in 2015 - this is his "0.3M" season where he would have had that salary if he was ever prospect eligible
This season is his "0.5M" season, next year is "1M". If he were signed through 2018, he'd be eligible for extension after the 2017 season off that 2018 salary number.
