Yeah, I only have 4.21mil above the minimum to spend... the minimum being the cost of my last player. 

4.21 million dollars available cap space...

Ex.     jfranco has spent approximately $65.9m (million) leaving $44.1m to get to the $110m cap.  If he were to spend exactly $6.65m per each of his last remaining 6 picks  it would cost $39.9m giving him a total of $105.8m.  This means he has approx 4.2m to spend (as the increase over his last remaining picks).  

Remember that when you increase spending it has a cumulative effect over all remaining picks (i.e. increasing your next pick by a million dollars will decrease your cap space by the increased money spent x remaining picks).

Thanks buddhagamer... that's the explanation I was looking for.

This draft is basically going as poorly as possible for me at this point.

I'd like to point out that you now have 12 pitchers on your roster... with the space available for 1 more...just in case you are unaware.

Because of your own doing or because of other people picking them?
