[USML Announce] Trades?

Glad to see the continuation of the grand tradition of public negotiation! (We've all done it.)
You raise an interesting issue, though. The trade rules (see XII (6)) don't specifically mention open slots.

Hi again Rick,

Curious about your 3-for-1 or 4-for-2 thinking. Are you able to trade empty slots?

Thanks,
Frank

As it is written, "If Gammons bids around $35-$40 for any player, strike down or smote that player just for giggles".  At least that's been the case for the past four years running ('21 - A. Rendon $37, accumulated a few weeks worth of stats, now he's gone; '20 - A. Bregman $38, the same; '19 - G. Stanton $41, a complete waste; '18 - E. Andrus $33, collapsed in 2018).

Now that Rendon is gone, I'm clean out of hitters, so I'm looking for 3 for 1, 4 for 2, or at least 2 for 1 trades since I have 3 empty slots.
