There have been rumblings that Major League Baseball, which is aware that Type A free agents like Juan Cruz and infielders Orlando Hudson and Orlando Cabrera have been hindered by the compensation rules, are willing to make it easier for teams to sign then trade those free agents. For example, Arizona could sign Cruz to a contract that the Twins are willing to take on. The Twins and Diamondbacks would then work out a trade for Cruz. The Twins could land Cruz without losing a draft pick.
What does this mean for teams like the Sox looking to get compensation for Cabrera? Are lawsuits for getting nothing in terms of compensation in the near future?

The greatest trick the White Sox ever pulled was convincing their fan base that "Ozzieball" ever existed.

Seems the A's aren't worried about the draft compensation but about Orlando's salary demands
