He was already DFA when we brought up Joey Krehbiel.

Right, and when someone is DFA'd you have 7 days to trade them or else they pass through waivers and you get nothing for him.

We got something for him in the  7 day period.   Pretty standard procedure.

These no trade clauses must be absolutely brutal for front offices. Verlander and ERod dramatically affecting the value their teams can recoup. And I can't imagine things go back to being hunky dory once a player does exercise it given that they know you wanted rid of them.

It’s interesting that Eduardo would rather use his no trade to block LA and play Russian roulette with where he may get traded to.

With that said, we don’t know who the other 9 teams on his no trade clause are.

Maybe he just put the Dodgers on the list 10 times.

It was the front office that agreed to the NTC in the first place.
