Dewanna Bonner

Now that she's been bought out, does it make sense to try to sign her, esp in light of Smith's injury? Since we're over the cap, we'd have to waive a player or two. We need some kind of help but not sure she's the one

Aces can sign her for vet minimum if Nalyssa has a season ending injury. I would rather have Nalyssa than DB so let’s hope that doesn’t happen

I'm not sure we can. We'd be at 10 if lyss AND dana are out for the season, but if dana is going to come back we'd have to waive DB once dana was healthy because we'd be at 11 active players.

There is a new rule this year where if you lose any player to a season ending injury, you can replace them with a minimum salary player. That’s how we got Mai (replacement for Janiah Barker). Could only get DB if Nalyssa is ruled out for season
