As for the bold. Waivers are wiped at least twice maybe three times per season. The players discussed are already under contract and the AI team has carte blanche to sign them, if they need to be signed. Of course 99.5% of them don't need to be signed as has been repeatedly shown.



Quality players would be claimed and disappear from waivers. Players not claimed are;

1. Not seen as worth it. Marginal. Minor leaguers. Certainly not candidates for any form of contract

2. Have contracts that other AI teams figure are not worth it

No evidence exists that either type of player would be in limbo or that an AI team is affected in any way.

Why all the talk, simply show what the problem is. I've shown what it isn't.
What constitutes a quality player or what player would be worthwhile is SUBJECTIVE. What is OBJECTIVE is that in real baseball you can negotiate with a previously waived player and in OOTP you cannot. Markus himself has agreed it is a bug!
