Is there even a DL during the off-season? Maybe, for 40-man purposes. Wasn't Carl Crawford traded to the Dodgers while on the DL?
Yeah. How did they do that? I object the trade.

I know you are allowed to PTNL a DL guy.
This suggests you can trade a guy on the DL. I would have sworn that you couldn't.

Whomever is the "inside source" at Chicago is a fucking idiot. I know all the major twit-fucks have an inside guy at every team. This deal was "official" so was Haren for Marmol. Someone in that organization is a fucking loud mouth.
What's weird is that the Red Sox under Theo were generally pretty good about controlling leaks. What was leaked was normally done so at ownership's behest.
Dempster Braves Trade: Most likely leaked by the Braves
Marmol Haren Trade: Marmol leaked it himself, like a moron.
Annabelle Trade: Probably done by his agent to drive up the price Detroit was willing to pay.

So, I'm going to go ahead and say, while it has happened to the Cubs a lot lately, not really Theo's fault.

But think of how far under the luxury tax threshold they'll be when one of the LA teams swallows 7 of those contracts for a PTBNL at the deadline!

I didn't think there was a loser in the bunch when I thought of my preseason rotation last year. Ya gotta relieve and ya gotta hit.
