Rangers Agree

 

[slavlite]

Josh Hamilton has exercised his No Trade clause This trade cannot be processed

 

[HeboAlan]

Huh? When did we have trade clauses on here?

 

[slavlite]

Built into the software, Since the owners offer contracts I cannot control what is offered. If this is the original contract generated by the CPU then it was built in.

This is the first time it has come up in the new league.

 

[HeboAlan]

He just signed an extension?

 

[Konel07]

I think that was one of the demands during negotiations I apologize for setting this up without proper clarification. I apologize to the Cardinals for the misinformation it was not intended

 

[HeboAlan]

Its ok now trade me Cueto lol

No trade clauses don't mean the player can't be traded...it just means the player has the choice to leave or not.

 

[HeboAlan]

Oh can it go through then?

 

[cjay101]

Oh can it go through then?

Not this trade.

Essentially, Hamilton said, "why would I go to the Cardinals who were a ****** .500 team last year and leave my place on the Rangers who were a playoff team?"

It is trade by trade...odds are he won't want to move anywhere though.
