You offer player A for Player X. They both have to not be claimed by another team then trade is finished?

Asking saw Adam Dunn was traded today.

So the Angels could have claimed either killed the trade?

But can the team clearing player recall him after claimed, so he stays put?

If player B is not on the 40 man roster he does not have to be passed through waivers. Which was the case today.

Adam Dunn cleared waivers earlier this month, so the Angels didn't know he'd be heading to the A's a couple weeks later.

quote:

Chicago White Sox first baseman Adam Dunn cleared waivers on Friday and is eligible to be traded to any team, reports CBSSports.com.

Dunn went unclaimed in the waiver wire and still has almost $20 million to go on his contract through the end of the 2014 season.

There is no way that can be right, he is free agent at the end of the season. I doubt his contract for the year was $20 million, much less for the one month left in the season.

Yeah, that's gotta be a typo or something. I've read the A's are paying half of 2.5 mill remaining on his contract.

Why have a trade deadline at all?
