Waivers
[edit]I don't know who drafted this article, but that person has zero idea of PTBNL or why it exists. It is all about clearing waivers afte the no-trade deadlines. 99% of the time the teams know exactly who they are trading. It is just that the player has to clear waivers and if he doesn't, then they will finish the trade when clearing waivers is not required. It is just a way around the trade deadline. Or, at least, for the last several years that is the vast majority of PTBNL trades. Vegaswiki (talk) 14:48, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
