>>>>> I think Jeff is correct. You are allowed one and only one +1 asterisk trade with another team in one season, but that does not preclude balanced asterisk trades later. Here is the text:
>>>>>
>>>>> During the season, a team may engage in a trade with another team in which the difference between the number of Asterisk Players that it trades away and the number of Asterisk players that it disposes of is one, provided, that the teams involved in the trade have not consummated another trade with each other during the season in reliance on this Section 12.9.
