From the thread I linked to, and in fact from the text in the preview to the thread I linked to:

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.

Yes, your cap penalty will be removed.

The thread gives a full explanation of why the system works this way and why it isn’t automated.
