...and editting any player to set him as a free agent or put him on another team invariably crashes the game.
"Buyout rights" should remove the rights and drop him from the protected list, but it's only usable during the offseason (and I think the only way to use it right now is via right-click on the active roster, so you may need to call him up first.)
