How come when I go to free agent search and do a waivers included only search I get a bunch of players on other teams?

You need to check the free agent box so players from other teams won't show up.

Can I just say how annoying that is?

Is that a database issue?

Because it would make a lot more sense for me to ONLY be able to look for Waiver Claim guys. Most of the Free Agents are picked through or would only help a brand new owner. As I'm getting established I would like to be able to only look for waiver guys (especially helps with prospects).

He's not annoyed that he has to check a box to avoid seeing players on peoples teams,
He's annoyed that there's no option to just see waiver claim guys so he doesn't have to pick through free agents.

Yeah that would be nice. I can't think of a time when I didn't want to see waivers when looking at FA. First year I played the game I missed the first two weeks of waivers because I didn't realize the box unchecked itself at the beginning of the year. I agree it is annoying.

People have asked for a number of things...what would be the best interface to handle that?

We want to have the options to view Free Agents only. Free Agents and Waiver players. Not sure if people would like to view just waive claim players.

Others wanted the ability to look at the whole universe of players with this mechanism.

I'd like the setting to be sticky too.

Maybe separate check boxes for each one, with default to free agents and waiver players?

When I look for players I don't want to see the free agents. If I had been interested in them I would have claimed them when they were on waivers.

I think it would be good to search for only waiver players. The three checkboxes with FA and Waiver defaulted sounds like a good plan.

Agree that 3 search check boxes would be nice with any combination

Search Free Agents
Search Waivers
Search Major League rosters

What if another search for minor leaguers could be implemented?
