Why no post-trade deadline trading of waiver-cleared players? Just curious on that one.

Sign me up!
Mike,

Thanks for the kind words regarding the league and website.

I would prefer the trading deadline to be an actual deadline, rather than allowing managers to send compensation to teams on players who clear waivers. As it stands, the MLB trading deadline is a bit of a joke. Teams who can't get it done in July can still fall back on the possibility of making a move in August. In this way, I've always thought deadlines should be final. I am however open to extending the trading deadline into August, though this type of decision might be best decided by the league as a group.
