Talked to another player in a different organization and was told the following: "A player can be put on the restricted list if he refuses assignment to a level." Basically what I got from my conversation was that say a player is drafted and signs and is told "go to the AZL" the player says "no I think I should be in the Pioneer League" and if they come to an impasse, the player is placed on the Restricted List for x-amount days (umpaid) while the situation is worked out. Not to say this is what is happening with Hereaud, but just what I was told.
