Trade Announcement
The Cardinals have dealt outfielder Brad Hawpe and 2nd baseman Orlando Hudson to the White Sox in a trade late today. In return the Cards receive shortstop Edgar Renteria and prospect Josh Fields (moves to Cards minor league protected list). The Cards roster will be modified to fill the empty roster spot.

I'd deal Josh Fields, Shaun Marcum, and possibly other players for an upgrade somewhere else on my roster (including draft picks, minor league prospects, etc.)

Regarding Japanese players, they are eligible to be drafted ala Daise K last year. Just an FYI.
And thanks Geek for updating the unprotected lists.

1 more thing....Brian, could you please explain the rule about a player who is protected on a minor league roster, but has exceeded the number of IP or number of AB's & no longer qualifies as a minor leaguer? I know the rule is listed, but I can't find it. Thanks....& let's get it started!

Geek, I asked that question too. I got this response from the commish:
« Message sent on 12/13/07 at 12:33 » In a perfect world...it probably would be smart to go thru our minor league systems now and tag those that need a promotion.
But time is not on our side.....sounds like a song or close to it........anyway, we'll do that after the major league draft and after the season starts - so we know who is and who is not on the major league rosters......
So we are doing the 20 keepers from last year's end of the season roster.

We are doing the keepers from last season's roster......but if you KNOW that a player is going to open the season on the roster (like for me, Jon Lester) then you can add him now.
Once the season starts up, we'll all look who has made the opening day rosters and adjust accordingly. We'll give like a 2 week window once the season starts to adjust the rosters...
Also, the IP, AB, Appearance rules are not just for guys who open the season on the major league roster, but for every player.
