I see no reason to revisit, I just wanted a reminder. Thanks.

For administrative reasons, we run the FAAB auction over night so that players can be moved Sunday morning by the acquiring owner, rather than the commissioner, but I don’t think we have ever allowed those players to be traded in the intervening 12 hours.  We used to do this via email (e.g. “if I acquire X, move him to active, reserve Dunn”), but I do not recall league sentiment to change the concept of a player joining a team effective as of the new reporting period when we stopped doing this manually.

I say this without having read the constitution, so if that states otherwise I abide its word.
