Old Powerhouse: Completed Transactions / Re: Mets roster move

OK, just read the rules regarding releasing players to refresh my memory.
"Any player dropped before the trade deadline still has part of his contract count against the cap in the following manner: Current year: 90%, Next year: 60%, All future years after: 30%.
If the player is dropped after the trade deadline, then the hit to the cap changes to 75%, 50%, 25%, respectively."
I read that as saying on this occasion as it's after the trade deadline 75% of Gomes contract will still count towards my cap, no mention of additional penalties being applied which increase my team salary and take me over the cap. If that's not the case the rules need to be clarified, unless I'm totally misinterpreting what I'm reading.
