You put Bowman in the minors? That's crazy.
Needs an extra year or so of development before he's ready.

Puh-leez, you're just ducking arbitration.

I'm just amazed you got away with it without a demotion hit.

Yeah, you can sneak a lot of those post-trade guys through.

It depends on their response to the trade itself. I think I had one before where it registered as an event, and thereby gave him the demotion drop.

I think I tried to work out a collusive trade series with someone before just so we could be able to demote our own guys.

I can't believe that person wasn't me...and I'm almost 100% positive that you're wrong--it's not a question of it registering as an event, it often will, it's that it only registers as a trade, not demotion.  In their little sim heads, it's just an assignment since "demotions" can only happen within the same franchise.  At least that's how I think it plays...

Maybe I'm confusing it with some player I signed as a post-ST free agent and assigned to the minors despite their ongoing minor league eligibility. I know some of those guys will have that hit once in a while.

Though I wonder if we struck an agreement where we each wanted one of those unsigned guys with minor league eligibility, we signed the other guy's player, and then just traded the guy to the team who wanted him to assign him to AAA without penalty...

I owe you one anyway, don't I? We can test this out if you have someone in mind.
