Does Pittsburgh have the cap room to take on zimmer's 5M bonus.  They currently show a cap space of -1M and only made 4M worth of player drops after they picked.

Good call.  That was a $2m swing that I missed.

I will instead take MI Nolan Fontana who only demands a $1m bonus.  The Rockies may pick Zimmer if they like or keep their pick.
