Mailbag: What in the world is a Player to Be Named Later in a trade!?

#NothingPersonal #DavidSamson #MLB

Welcome into a mailbag episode. I’m not here, but I’m here. Someone asked me if MLB expands does that mean the ‘feeder’ systems expand too? New AAA teams? New AA? How does it work? Someone asked me about MLB regions and why MLB has picked regions that have no chance to have success. Someone asked me about PTBNL… a player to be named later. What does that mean? Is that more embarrassing than cash considerations? What is going on with the Rockies? Does the league ever give teams pressure to do more? Someone asked me about visas and Canadians and trading players to Canada!
