1. You can still make trades, but the players can't be on the playoff roster... Only players on a club’s 25-man roster or disabled list as of August 31 can appear in the playoffs.
2. players traded must clear waivers before being traded after the July 21st non-waiver trade deadline
3. he must clear waivers first like Wellsy
4. isnt this question asked every day
5. You can but they cant be on the playoff roster
6. through waviers, dont ask me how that works but everything goes through waviers. go 2 mlb.com
7. Here's the deal: After July 31st, players can no longer be "freely" traded. They must pass a thing called waivers. Let's say the Mets were going to trade Orlando Hernandez (I just thought of a random player). The Mets want to trade him for Khalil Greene of the Padres. They can set up the trade, but then must place Hernandez (and the Padres, Greene) on the waiver list. Once on the waiver list, any other team can claim that player, if they wish. So let's say the Cubs claim David Wright. The Mets and Cubs would then have 48 hours to work out a trade. If that 48 hours passes, then David Wright would remain with the Mets. If David Wright did get traded to the Cubs, Wright would not be able to play in the playoffs, should the Cubs (miraculously) make the playoffs, That's the best understanding I can give you.
