NY Daily News: Selig Stopped Jones Trade to Marlins
July 2, 2007 by Squib Hits
Joe Aiello from View from the Bleachers notes a report from Bill Madden of the New York Daily News that Bud Selig prevented the Cubs from trading Jacque Jones to the Florida Marlins last week. According to the report, "Seems Selig deemed the money the Cubs were to absorb on Jones' contract as excessive. Apparently, the pending sale of the Cubs has prompted a 'no more debt' edict from Selig." As Joe notes, the "no more debt" explanation makes no sense, since the Cubs would have been relinquishing debt, albeit minimally given how much of Jones' salary the Cubs likely would have continued to pay.
