<div>I hate to question a move by an esteemed franchise like the Nukes, but was Nathan Eovaldi eligible for a FAAB purchase? He's pitching in the minors now. Our rules state: "A minor league player will not join the pool of free agents <b><i>until he is promoted to an active American League major league roster and may not be acquired as a free agent prior to such promotion</i></b>."
