This isn't really anything MLB did but I don't know that it's worthy of its own thread, so this seemed like an appropriate spot.

Justin Turner broke his wrist in an at-bat. Him go bye-bye for a while.

So if Verlander had flopped or gotten hurt after the trade, they wouldn't have owed anything? Makes no sense to me.MrCrowesGarden wrote: This isn't really anything MLB did but I don't know that it's worthy of its own thread, so this seemed like an appropriate spot.

Maybe I'm just not understanding this, but how do you quantify the tax value of a player acquired in a trade?

See all those capital gains taxes we avoided by not making any trades at the deadline last year? A brilliant act of efficiency. In fact I think we should be allowed to deduct Oh and Rosie's crap as long term losses. Accountants know it's not always bad having a few losers on your books if you are trying to minimize your tax liabilities!
