Guardado bidding

In my NL-only, 12 team keeper league, Eddie Guardado went for $33 last night to a team in the thick of competing.

I was stunned, and continue to be stunned, by the actions of teams that bailed or are in the process of bailing.

Why don't these teams bid whatever they can and look to deal the player to those teams in competition for additional future help?

In addition to garnering a better prospective team for the next year, the bailing team also wekens the competitng club by saddling them with an expensive player that is unprotectable at the bid salary.

But at $33, any closer is protectable in a Nl-only keeper league.
