Approved.
Please update your rosters and payroll info accordingly. Thanks!
For clarity, this trade involves the RFA Tagged (and matching) rights to Machado, which is just a logical extension/conclusion of the RFA Tag used on Machado. This does **not** extend to allowing an auction high bidder to trade an auctioned, unmatched/no-longer-matchable RFA or regular FA (before officially/legally signed).
Each party involved also needs enough cap space for a potential signing of the to-be-matched RFA even though not necessarily the exact, actual, eventually finalized contract.
