Burroughs veto stalls Ranger Braves trade moves
In a key baseball maneuver, Jeff Burroughs invoked his no trade clause to block a five player deal between the Texas Rangers and Atlanta Braves. Atlanta then recast the transaction sending Doyle Alexander and Larvell Blanks to Texas for Adrian Devine and Pepe Frias while negotiations with the Philadelphia Phillies continue. The same day Detroit traded Ron LeFlore to Montreal for Dan Schatzeder, as Tigers executives cited LeFlore’s option year and salary talks influencing decisions.
