[USML Announce] NOTICE OF HOT WAX SEAL

Sun May 13 09:14:43 EDT 2007

Legislative history?

You might also recall that I circulated four possible variations of text for
this rule that dealt with this issue specifically, however, in order to
simplify things given the compressed time period in which we acted, I
believe Jeff circulated the simplest variant.  Gee, maybe we should allow
more time to fuss with rules.  Naah -- it's more fun this way.  (grin)

On the merits, I have no preference either way -- for this trade or future
trades.  My recollection is that the creator of the rule -- Jim Barrett --
suggested that players could be activated by the receiving team.

I will amend my usmltrans message on the assumption that the trade goes
through this week, as that seems to be the consensus (Doug notwithstanding).
Brad -- don't forget to activate Sweeney!!!

I agree with Rich on this one. It seems to me that as long as there is a
consensus, either rule would be fine. 

Is anyone else entertained (but not surprised) that its these two gentlemen
that are testing the parameters of the new rule?

I don't have a strong view either way on this one.

New Section 12.13 doesn't clearly address the matter.

I wouldn't object to permitting the activation of a player whose contract

isn't running to be coincident with the trade.

It occurs to me that this trade might not be effective until next Sunday, as

Sweeney's contract will not be "running" until today at noon.  

Commissioners ... a ruling please.  I have Sweeney set to go active today.

Does that mean he is a Riptorn this week or next week?

The Klein Nine trades Ryan Sweeney to the Riptorns for Hammern' Hank 

Blalock.
