In these instances, trades are left partially uncompleted. On occasion, teams haven't fully scouted a foe's pipeline. On other occasions, a player may have nagging injury concerns.
Sometimes, the last piece hasn't "distanced themselves" from other possible options. Let's imagine one team has a player the Cubs want, and the teams are close, but not close enough, to trade. The other team wants one more player to complete the exchange. PTBNL can go both ways, or multiple players can go one way.
The premise is the same. The teams agree to a list of players, often in the length of two to five. The receiving team has up to six months if both teams agree, the period can be shorter to decide on which player they prefer.
If they decide on "none of the above," an agreed-upon cash fee is sent instead. If the trade is as simple as one player for a PTBNL that turns into a cash receipt , it's listed as the player being traded for cash. The premise of "bought" or "sold" is potentially considered barbaric. The hope for the receiving team is that one of these minor league players in almost every case, it will be a minor leaguer figures out a portion of the game upon being linked to the trade.
Then, they can add him on a hot streak. Neither players, media, nor bloggers are told the names on the list. Both teams progress as if nothing has changed.
If an announcement is made, then the player changes teams, and the seasons continue. Are there any other terms that ought to be better explained? That's what this series is about. The deal must close within six months of the conclusion of the rest of the trade. If the teams can't agree on who the player will be, then they will agree on a price to be paid instead of a player.
The acronym PTBNL is generally used by bloggers and is rarely found in newspapers, nor is it generally used by broadcast media. Its use is termed "rare. The teams could not agree on a final deal, so the Mets traded Chiti back to Cleveland for himself. On Dec. The player to be named later turned out to be Tom Mastny who was assigned by Toronto to Detroit on Dec.
Because players must change leagues, generally minor leaguers are chosen, and thus very few PTBNLs are of known star quality at the time of trade. In the National Hockey League , future considerations work in a similar fashion to PTBNLs, except that, because the NHL allows teams to trade draft picks, but does not allow teams to trade players or draft picks for cash, draft picks can be traded instead of cash.

To make squares disappear and save space for other squares you have to assemble English words left, right, up, down from the falling squares. Boggle gives you 3 minutes to find as many words 3 letters or more as you can in a grid of 16 letters. You can also try the grid of 16 letters. Letters must be adjacent and longer words score better. See if you can get into the grid Hall of Fame!
