I tried to leave only around 50 days remaining in the season to make it more realistic for acquiring other players cap hits. this is version 2 of this idea/post...
assuming jeff carter won't waive his NMC to help PIT gain cap space Dubas is left with either trading an underperforming player like Graves, Acciari, Rakell or Nieto or just acquiring minimal cap hits like 1.5M or below...
version 3 of this post will explore trading Rakell... as he does not have trade protection and Dubas did not sign him.
