Players Only Need To Clear Waivers Once Per Season

Post by Tendy_Rangers »

Once a player clears waivers they receive a “CW” designator next to their contract length.

This will allow the movement of the player between the minors and 40 man all season without the need to place the player on waivers multiple times.

The player will still be required to pass waivers for all subsequent seasons.

Sending a player down through the waiver process in this league is the equivalent of outrighting them off of the 40-man roster IRL. If a real team sends a player down in this way and calls them back up to the 40, they have to clear waivers again in order to be sent down. This proposed rule would be in opposition to our stated goal of emulating MLB as closely as possible.
