With exactly a week left until the trade deadline, I'd just like to remind everyone that at midnight Saturday into Sunday eastern, teams will no longer be able to make trades freely. Starting August 1, only trades made through the waiver system are allowed, up until August 31 at which point no more trades can be done.
To refresh everyone on the waiver trade process, here is a quick summary: - For players off of the 10-man minor league roster, you must post them on Waivers if you wish for them to be traded. - If a player is claimed, a deal can only be made between the original team and the claiming team. If a deal cannot be reached after 72 hours, the player can be posted on waivers again, but there is still a chance that the first team will claim the player again. Remember though that a player can only be placed on waivers three times in a season. - If nobody claims a player, that player may be dealt to any team if a deal is reached. Only players who also cleared waivers, were claimed by the other team, or are on the 10-man minor league roster can be dealt.
For more specifics, refer to the rule on Waivers in the Official Rules board.
