Rule Violated:
3.3A - Award Bonuses
ALL STAR, MVP & CY YOUNG Awards are capped at 10% of the Average Annual Value of the player salary offered to the player.
This means if you offer a contract with an Average Annual Value of $1 million, you cannot offer more than 100k per award category (MVP, All-Star, Cy Young)
Larger Example: A 7-year contract with an Average Annual Value of $25 million per season can include up to $2.5 million (10%) per Award Category in MVP, All-Star, and or Cy Young incentives.
This is to stop teams from offering significant portions of a player's salary as MVP awards they are very unlikely to receive and to keep teams with this knowledge from gaming the system.
If you violate this rule: You will be fined the total value of the entire overage, The player will have the total value of the entire overage added to the 1st year (or 2nd year depending on when the violation is discovered) of their contract, and their bonus %'s well be corrected manually.

Summary:
MVP Award Bonus is $1,100,000 when the maximum allowable is $850k based on Carbajal's AAV of $8.5m
$1,100,000-$850,000= $250,000(overage/violation)  x2 Seasons= $500,000 Team cash fine + bonus %'s well be corrected manually.
