Doesn't bother me either way, if people want that number to count against the salary cap they can give out all the major league contracts they want to. I don't feel a need for waivers or a rule 5 draft, however.

Oh right, that makes sense now. I think the game does indeed do that. I don't know if it matters for our purposes, since we don't do September callups, that's why I didn't do it. All major league contracts, even those of players in the minors, count towards team payroll in our league at present, so the signings aren't loopholes. The way I see if, if someone wants to pay a guy who won't play for an entire year to sit in the minors, that's their issue, so long as they have the cap room.
