This is our online league's first season on OOTP 20. We are seeing something we have not seen before. We are in season, almost at the all star break. The past couple of sims there have been three rule V returns. The player was released and correctly returned to the original team on their DFA. However these players still have the league minimum contract. That leaves the GM with the choice of putting the player on their 40 man or releasing them and paying off the rest of the contract.

It has not worked like that in the past. Previously the player would be returned with a minor league contract and could be put directly into the minor leagues from DFA.

Any feedback on this? New functionality? Bug?
