[USML Announce] Nathan Eovaldi?

[springkerb]

He's on the major league DL and on a rehab assignment, so he's eligible.

            Hi Andy,
My hunch is that he was never demoted. If he is pitching in the minors, it is because he is on a rehab assignment as he attempts to return from a stint on the MLB disabled list. This article seems to confirm that:
Nathan Eovaldi to begin rehab assignment on Friday

Onroto also lists his MLB status as "on diasbled list" which would make him a major leaguer.
Hope that helps!

                    I hate to question a move by an esteemed franchise like the Nukes, but was  Nathan Eovaldi eligible for a FAAB purchase?  He's pitching in the minors now.  Our rules state:   "A minor league player will not join the pool of free agents until he is promoted to an active American League major league roster and may not be acquired as a free agent prior to such promotion."
