<p class="MsoNormal"> I could easily be missing something here but doesn’t a traded player have to be on one’s roster for that team to collect righteous FAAB bucks? I’m referring to Mr. Civale, who was on the USML waiver list when traded to the Brewers,
Jeff having waived him the week before. Thanks in advance for clarifying….<o:p></o:p></p>
