Dropping players before a player option?
Hey All,
I just started a standard Red Sox franchise in challenge mode and no matter what I do, I just can't seem to offload Rusney Castillo's terrible contract. He has a player option in year 2, and I'm considering releasing him before then, but if I do I'm wondering what happens with his option year? Am I still on the hook for that last year, or does releasing him before the break point nullify the remaining balance?
Any other tips on offloading bad contracts would be much appreciated since Hanley's deal is next on my chopping list.
Thanks in advance!
