[USML Announce] Rule Question

[springkerb at aol.com]

That's the way I would think it would work.  If you can activate him, why can't you also trade him?  Also, I always thought the whole point behind the timing of the trade deadline (first period after the MLB deadline) was to allow trading in the wake of the MLB activity).  If you can't trade someone you're purchased, that doesn't work very well.  But, as you all know, I always interpret the rules to allow more transactions rather than fewer.

This has to involve Colby Rasmus, but nevertheless here's my take: the player acquired via faab becomes a team's property at 12:01 a.m. Sunday--so why can't he be traded in a deal that takes effect the following Sunday? I say this without having read the constitution, so if that states otherwise I abide its word.

Ok Brad, assume it is your team and my team and the player involved is one that you covet.

Depends on (i) who the player is and (ii) what teams are tryng to do a deal.
Please provide the information and I will furnish a legal opinion.
Thank you.

Can a player acquired in FAAB bidding this weekend also be traded this reporting period?

Since this is the last trading period before the contiguous trading requirement kicks in I'd like to make sure we have a consistent understanding of this issue. I don't recall how we have addressed this one in the past.

Thanks,
