Hey, I have a few questions about how the team budget works.

I'm in the postseason of my first year with the real life Reds. In 2013 my projected payroll is 116m and my projected budget is 126m, which means I have 0 money for extensions. The thing is, I have the injured Ryan Maddson on a team option for 2013, of 11m with a 2.5m buyout. My question is if I buyout of the option year, will I have the remaining 8.5m of his salary back into my extensions budget?

Also, is the projected budget really the budget I'll get in the next season? I'm doing really good, on my way for an ALCS win with a top 10 farm system, so I'm hoping I'll get some more cash to throw around.

And lastly, will the 15m in cash I have in 2012 move on with me into 2013? And if so, could I use them for extensions / free agency?
