Just so I get this if I’m reading this right. You can now cover salaries in future years as you part of a deal? I don’t remember this being done before

I don’t remember this being done before wasn't trading the player (he is released at the moment, slumming around the Mexican league ala Kenny Powers), just his tag, just making it clear in the trade talk that I am still liable for the salary as he was a V contract.

Ok gotcha. Basically just trading the tag of an already released player?
