You would still incur cap penalties for those players in last year of contracts.  The cap penalties would be the following:

Kurt Suzuki 25% of $1.3m or $325,000
Albert Pujols 25% of $3.2m or $800,000
Marco Estrada 25% of $1.2m or $300,000
Tyler Thornburg 25% of $0.5m or $125,000
Jeremy Hellickson 25% of $0.5m or $125,000
Kevin Plawecki 25% of $0.5m or $125,000
Jon Jay 25% of $0.5m or $125,000
Hector Rondon 25% of $0.7m or $187,500
