I believe there are rules regarding who can claim him. I believe both SF and Cincy are barred from submitting a claim.

Anyone know the exact rule about that?

Are you sure about that? I've seen multiple players get claimed by the same teams during the dfa carousel. I'm not sure that is a rule.

I very well could be wrong. But I think there was a rule implemented in the last CB agreement regarding players who fall into the DFA grinder.

 

[sf1giantfan]

What if no other team wants him except the teams that already claimed him?

“Sorry T.J. They already claimed you”

“But it’s a paying job, I have needs, I have a wife, kids and a mistress I need to take care”

“T.J. Rules are set into place to protect you, we don’t care about your needs”

Maybe the last team to dfa him cannot claim him on the next waiver appearance but here is exhibit A that players can get re-claimed by the same team at some point.

	February 13, 2024	Cincinnati Reds claimed OF Bubba Thompson off waivers from Minnesota Twins.
	February 7, 2024	Minnesota Twins designated OF Bubba Thompson for assignment.
	January 24, 2024	Minnesota Twins claimed OF Bubba Thompson off waivers from New York Yankees.
	January 19, 2024	New York Yankees designated OF Bubba Thompson for assignment.
	January 4, 2024	New York Yankees claimed OF Bubba Thompson off waivers from Cincinnati Reds.
	December 28, 2023	Cincinnati Reds designated OF Bubba Thompson for assignment.
	October 26, 2023	Cincinnati Reds claimed OF Bubba Thompson off waivers from Kansas City Royals.
