Yanks Roster moves

[OUDAN]

would like to drop the following players in order to get back under the cap

CI Hinze, Kody, $0.5m (P-n/a)
P Krol, Ian, $0.5m (P-n/a)
OF Russell, Kyle, $0.5m (2013)   
OF Spilborghs, Ryan, $1.5m (2012)   
P Elbert, Scott, $0.5m (P-2014)

Dan: I can process these but just so you are aware only 1.5M is cleared, dropping Russel and  Spilborghs does not clear cap space. Please confirm you want to proceed.

[OUDAN]

Drop the guys that create the 1.5 mil please

[OUDAN]

Also please release Andres Torres

[h4cheng]

Dropping Torres will open up 1M in cap space. Dan, do you want to forfeit your bids on Berry and Pod, you need to open up another 1.5M in cap space to sign those two.

I don't believe that the bids on Berry and Pod can be rescinded, because they were major league bids.  We went through this last year with Wily Mo Pena.  Dan needs to make a trade or cut more prospects.

Ill give up those bids if its possible. I was running off the I thought updated rosters and made all these trades under that assumption so I am very sorry rcan that u r so upset.

I'm sorry, but I don't believe that you can give up those bids without opening up a HUGE can of worms and creating a new precedent.  We have NEVER let owners walk away from bids.  In my opinion, we are all responsible for managing our salary caps whether the rosters are updated or not.

[OUDAN]

Can there be a ruling on this before I decide what Im doing

[h4cheng]

I will let DW decide this one but there was precedent set before:
