It is similar to the situation that occurs in Major League Baseball every August where teams that are out of contention, but have a few older, higher-paid stars on their roster, will trade them to contending teams for some minor league prospects or draft choices. For the out-of-contention team, it means that they get younger players to rebuild into a contending roster in a few years. For contending teams, it means that they get experienced, capable players to fill a short-term need and possibly add the crucial element to win a championship in the current year. [/QUOTE]
