But he was still placed on waivers and cleared, which made him available to the whole league in a trade. Other teams passed and the Indians swooped in, getting the deal done by sending along a player to be named — believed to be minor league right-hander Julian Merryweather, who is recovering from Tommy John surgery. Donaldson then immediately went on the DL with Cleveland, which should show he wasn’t healthy enough to be placed on waivers in the first place.
TO THE WHOLE LEAGUE IN TRADE
Cleveland isn't in a divisional race. We can give Donaldson all the time he needs to come back. There was no rule that said he needed to be on the active roster. He's been playing in the minor leagues, so yes he is healthy. They want to give him time to get up to speed since he hasn't played ball since May.
The Yankees and Red Sox can complain all they want. Especially the Red Sox and their 200+ million dollar payroll. Boohoo, cry me a river.
This is so stupid.
