Have you read this source? It doesn't seem so. The headline says Padres to acquire Hader from Crew in 5-player trade (source) Emphasis mine. "Source" means unconfirmed. I understand that the article then leads with The Padres got the closer they were looking for -- and they pulled off a doozy of a deal to make it happen., but then it says San Diego is acquiring left-hander Josh Hader from Milwaukee in a wild trade that sees the Major Leagues’ top two saves leaders switching teams midseason, a source told MLB.com on Monday. "Is acquiring" means it hasn't happened yet. "A source told MLB.com on Monday" means the teams haven't confirmed it. So, it's likely in the process but incomplete at this time. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:21, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

We are an encyclopedia. not a newspaper. Passan, Sherman, Heyman, Rosenthal... they all work for newspapers or similar publications. They break news. Sometimes they get it wrong in the process of getting the scoop. Since we are an encyclopedia, we wait until things are confirmed to have taken place before updating. We do this every trade deadline. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:23, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

And with this tweet, we know that the deal is official. This, at 3:30 PM EDT, is the first official confirmation of the trade. Was it so hard to be patient for a few hours? – Muboshgu (talk) 19:40, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

And look! MLB.com has updated that source! It no longer says "is acquiring". That sentence now reads San Diego on Monday acquired left-hander Josh Hader from Milwaukee in a wild trade that sees the Major Leagues’ top two saves leaders switching teams midseason. See the difference? – Muboshgu (talk) 19:44, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

I somehow messed up the article
Can someone revert what happened when l edited the teams column? I don’t know what happened Calebh98 (talk) 07:06, 2 August 2022 (UTC)

 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: Even if Hader does sign with Houston, which is not confirmed, he played for San Diego in 2023. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:33, 19 January 2024 (UTC)

Josh Hader just signed with Houston! (2017 was forever ago forget about it! Also, other teams cheated using very similar methods at the same time!)
