Not to be "that guy," but I believe Guthrie signed a minor league deal with the Nationals.

I can confirm that Guthrie plays for the Melbourne Acers, in fact I think he is starting this weekend in the Championship series against the Brisbane Bandits.

That said, quite a few players play in the Australian Baseball League, and can do so without missing MLB time, its basically a winter league, not like Japan which plays during the MLB.

*I signed Verret to a $.5M contract, but the league minimum is $.535 so I might owe him $.267M)*

With the league minimum going up this year, his contract was adjusted to the new minimum of $.535M. Half of that salary will be charged for his release.

Unsworth is eligible for the exempt roster, therefore no cap hit will be charged.
