What happens if I trade 2 of my ML position players for another team's ML RP after the deadline to set postseason rosters?  Will I go into the postseason with only 23 guys on my squad, or will I be allowed to add the RP and another AAA guy to my postseason roster once the post season begins?

The players you trade for are not eligible for your post season roster.

Anyone on the 40 man roster is eligible to be added to the post season roster.

To clarify: anyone on the 40 man roster as of the "set postseason roster" deadline is eligible to be added to the post-season roster.

Okay, then a follow up question, if I promote a AAA prospect solely for the playoffs, will his MLB service clock begin to run?

No. I don't believe so.

MLB service time is only accrued during the regular season.
