This is not an AI issue, this is a Human action issue. They shouldn't have to program the game to protect people from their own actions. And with regards to a Commish revoking a waiver claim, the key to that rule is "if the purpose of the claim was to prevent a third club from claiming the player."

Was the signing and subsequent trade by the OP a direct attempt to prevent another team from acquiring the player, this is a very subjective area considering we (The people playing the game) can't be 100% sure what other teams have or have not placed a claims on the player in question.

As I already merntioned, this isn't an AI problem. If the AI was doing this own it's own (claiming a player and immediately trading him) It would be an issue. If it's a human team interaction with the AI, the answer isn't fix the AI, it is, Human Team stop doing that!!!!
