I listened to the radio show and I think releasing a top paid contract free and clear is a totally bogus idea. An example is a player like 1B Billy Butler who jps would have loved to release free and clear but he was responsible and had to package prospects to ship him out. I agree with matty that mogul has it right and only arb guys can be signed and all FA guys would be released. no extensions can be signed and only minimun contracts can be sign on free agency. If you allow a free release that is totally unfair to other teams in the league
