If so than this means Sox passed on him. 8 minutes ago, southsider2k5 said: I thought during the season it went by record? Maybe I am misremembering or mixing it up with something else. I believe it is by record now. When you placed a player on August waivers to trade it was by league.

Balta1701 Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 This is from the official league site so I would strongly suspect it is accurate if there were any updates with the CBA. https://www.mlb.com/glossary/transactions/outright-waivers Quote Claiming priority is based on league and reverse winning percentage. So, if a player is placed on outright waivers by an American League club, the 14 other AL clubs will have priority over the 15 National League clubs, with top priority going to the AL club with the weakest record, followed by the AL club with the second-weakest record, and so on. If a club has already previously claimed a player on outright waivers in a given year, the club’s claiming priority will be moved to last among the 30 clubs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KW/TLR/Hahn just love their NL vets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
