Other team in a trade claimed my player in waiver trade

I made a post-deadline trade with Arizona in a current MLB Challenge mode league and they claimed they player they were supposed to acquire which caused the trade to be cancelled.

Seems like the teams should be locked out of making waiver claims on players they are scheduled to acquire in a trade and vice versa with the human player.

I'm considering this a bug.

I'm curious. In my experience with waiver trades there is no record of the actual waiver claim in the trade module. Do you have a screen shot of the waiver claim and the trade screen?

The only thing I can think of off the top of my head is that maybe the player was on waivers before the trade. Because otherwise yeah seems like AZ shot themselves in their own foot.

Yeah if we could see the screens we might be able to tell about what happened. Otherwise, I'll let the devs know the story and see what they think.

That's the most likely cause.
