    ASB waivers

    Okay, I thought I understood how this worked, but in my transactions menu it says the Jays lost Catalonato to waivers and then claimed him off of waivers the next day.
    Now, shouldn't I have been offered a shot at him before it cycled back to the Jays?

    No, because if he was claimed by another team ahead of you, then the Jays could have pulled him back before you got your shot at him.

        I see, so my next question is, How do you pull a player back once he is claimed? Please clarify.
        thanks,

            In the game, if you try to send a player down to the minors who is out of options, and he is claimed by another team, a window pops up saying that "Player X has been claimed" and gives you the option to take him back.

            Note: this only works if you are moving a player down to the minors. Certain roster moves don't give you the option of pulling your player back (I think taking him off the 40 man and demoting a player claimed in the Rule-5 are among thsoe instances)
