it would absolutely be possible by simply having the checkbox option and/or the editable transaction file option. Keep in mind that OOTP's historical txn module doesn't care where players are; it only cares that they are supposed to go somewhere else. So if, for example, I don't allow Freddy Lynn to go to California but I don't later uncheck the box that sends him to Baltimore, he will end up on Baltimore.

Your Lynn example keeps him from going to Baltimore as a Free Agent, how do you propose handling Chris Hoiles? Does he simply stay in Detroit when the Orioles trade Lynn, who is still in Boston to the Tigers, or does he go Baltimore for nothing?
In the Piazza example what happens to Sheffield? Does he just stay in Florida? What happens when the Dodgers IRL trade him to Atlanta? Does he THEN depart Florida and become a Brave while Atlanta sends Brian Jordan and Odalis Perez to Los Angeles? Do the Dodgers get players in a trade for a player that they received in a trade that they never made? Do they get the benefit of trading Gary Sheffield to Atlanta without ever having given up Piazza to get Sheffield in order to get Jordan and Perez, but wind up having Piazza
as well as Jordan and Perez???
