2. Can I simply cut them, if I dont' want to go thru arbitration with them, and am just as happy to cut them loose with nothing in return.
3. If they get an arbitration award, is it immediately guaranteed? Can I cut them after they get the award, or do I have to pay them? Im assuming I'd have to pay the bastards.

1. I have traded guys that were getting ready to "Get Paid" for some good prospects, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
2. On the ARB screen just withdraw the offer and they will become FA's I just did that with 2 guys in my online league.
3. This isn't football, baseball $$ is guaranteed money. Once the ARB hearings come around no matter what they are given, whether it's the amount you offered them or what the arbitrator awards them to cut them you would have to pay part or all of their upcoming salary.
