The better he does the better the two players to be named later right? Is that how it tends to work?

Nope. Generally, there was a list that has already been agreed to. This safeguards in the event the opposite happens, the player bombs or gets hurts. Additionally, during August, anyone from the other team (on 40-man, but not 25-man) coming back also must clear waivers. So if they are PTBNL, they are easily moved at the end of the year. But not so at the time of the trade.

Believe the Tigers were about to get big bites on Shane Greene -- until a non-contender blocked him on the waiver wire. That's legal, but front offices don't forget the obstruction. Among non-contenders, it's viewed as a low blow.

I thought it was baseball. Legal works, eh?
