Last week I designated a player for assignment. He wasn't claimed by anyone else, and is now a free agent.
On the FA screen, he's asking for a MinL contract of $191,000, which is the prorated amount of the league min ML salary.
If I sign him and assign him to a MinL roster, do I have to pay him $191K more for the rest of the season? Or, since I'm already paying him $360K for the season, does that cover the $191?
Seems silly that I would have to pay him twice, but I can't find this situation documented anywhere.
Anyone know for sure?
Thanks.
