> I’m the commissioner in League 207. One owner had Y Gurriel for $16. He cut him, then started an auction a month later, and won that auction for $8. Oddly, his $8 cap penalty was removed, and he’s only been charged $8 for Gurriel, so he effectively got the player he cut at a 50% discount to his original salary. The owner flagged this and asked whether that is correct, or whether something glitched in the system. Hence, I am checking with you. Please let me know if you need any additional i…

Right now, Leclerc is on the books for $7 to you, due to the cap penalty. If you start his auction, the minimum bid anyone can place will be $7. If you win the auction for $7, your budget doesn’t go up, but you get Leclerc back on your roster, which you can then cut for a $4 cap penalty ($3 in added cap space) if you so choose.
