I like the the releases and signings on the boards; gives you the timeline for waivers.

I like the the releases and signings on the boards; gives you the timeline for waivers. That was a big part of it. We'll keep doing it for a couple of weeks, and then evaluate if it works better than email or not. |

Several Teams claim Jose Contreras. Really? He was released towards the end of last year (by Tony?). He lasted all the way through his 24 hours on waivers before I signed him. Maybe he got better over the offseason.  |

Maybe he got better over the offseason. He did, and got a big head over it, that's why Texas released him. He said he was the best pitcher the Rangers had. Hmm... |

RedSox claim C Jeff Mathis. Release C Carlos Santana.
For the record, Boston does have an empty roster spot after the Jones trade, so they don't need to drop anyone.

Just for the record, were the Red Sox one of the few(only ) teams to put a claim in for Mathis ?
I ask because after claiming Contreras, I thought the Sox would go to the bottom of the waiver list. If they did, I guess I'm surprised more teams didn't try to claim Mathis, including my Rangers.

I don't know if we should comment on how many claims were submitted, but I can say that I'm surprised more teams didn't submit one, and Boston was able to get him despite having a low waiver position.

Is there any problem with putting all claims and releases on one thread rather than a separate thread for each team ? To me that seems to be an orderly way to track the claims and releases. The way it is now, we could have 30 threads, it's easy to miss something; just like in the old email days.

I actually prefer a separate thread for each player, then you dont even have to open them if you are not interested in them.
