[Doug Shabelman]

I sent Mark a bid, would assume people should send to the commissioner.

According to the story posted on MLB.com:  The deal has not been officially announced, pending the completion of physicals and the exchange of medical paperwork.  So, I think that explains that. 


I don't think we need to agree on anything for this one, but for what it's worth I do agree w/ MB that we should rely on the system, which is how I think we've done it in the past.  Until they show up there, they are not eligible.


By the way, I put in a bid  of $26 on David Purcey.  Anybody else?


Mark

What you describe is exactly how I thought things work.  I too wanted to bid on Nady.

League:
 
  I went to put in a bid on Xavier Nady, but he is not yet listed in the AL player pool, so I could not bid on him, and the trade transaction does not show up on MLB.com, so my take is that he is not yet eligible for FAAB bidding.  We may need to quickly agree on some sort of rule for players like this, but my suggestion is to let the system govern who is and is not eligible.
