The issue is, that checking this box doesn't seem to work this way. I tested it out and when I tried releasing the player, it said I'd still be responsible for his salary. Does anyone have input on this?
IIRC, a non-guaranteed contract is a minor-league contract that jumps to the contract amount if the player is called up before a certain date. If the player is not called up by that date, they can elect to become a free agent again.
