<div>Dennis, my noble young friend:</div>
<div> The variances you so wisely identified are the result of the Daddies and Riptorns waiving players with guaranteed long-term contracts; Brett Anderson ($10) of the Daddies and Brian Matusz ($7) of the Rips. </div>
<div> Per our league constitution, players with long-term contracts may be waived prior to the draft so long as their guaranteed salaries are deducted from the team's auction day allowance. There are other aspects of this rule and, frankly, for some time I thought that the constitution's primary author and interpreter, Richard E. Robbins, should have published an annotated version. Perhaps as part of your legal studies you would consider such a worthy endeavor.</div>

It is highly possible though that I overlooked something or missed a transaction that led to the numbers below, but going by the active salaries on the website, thats the numbers I got.<br>
