Only three claims on Randall. Huge W considering it's near the end of the season.

Haverhill had a claim on Randall, but we pulled it at the last moment in favor of a couple guys going on Tuesday's waivers.

I think there were 5 claims at that point, so at least one other team pulled their claim.

Some of the best deals are right before waiver cut-off.

Thought about him. Didnt really care for his body of work in the minors or prep. Also, I have several excellent right-handed corner OF types ready to promote. Hope he bashes for you.

Now that waivers has closed, I figured I would post my waivers report for this year. Not a lot of activity this year compared to years past.

Aponte (46 2/3 IP, 2.51 ERA), Benito Rodriguez (89 IP, 4.45 ERA) are valuable members of my bullpen, used a bit out of slot at times as spot starters during staffing emergencies. Waterman is a MI backup, and the team is improved in that respect over the start of the season, should my starters miss some games. Reese I hope one day competes as CF depth, Agosto as a L DH and George as MI depth. Núñez I acquired a couple days ago.

contested claims that are still in organization:

P Rodrigo Núñez (4 claims)
1B Tavon Reese (2 claims)
SS Christopher Waterman (4 claims)
P Salvador Aponte (4 claims)
SS Simon George (27 claims)
P Benito Rodriguez (4 claims)
1B Jorge Agosto (2 claims)

Free Agent P Johansen and uncontested claim Valenzuela I hope continue to stick with the team. Johansen has thrown some very good closer innings and Valenzuela I just acquired.

Nice haul Tiger!

Haverhill's haul this season:
Adam Farrell (Free Agent) 22 year old OF prospect (end of season grab)
Won Choung (2 claims) 24 year old borderline vLHP 1B prospect
Tommy Whitney (5 claims) 18 year old borderline vRHP 1B prospect
Geraldo Falcón (7 claims) 21 year old borderline vRHP 1B prospect (dropped, lost my chance at a much better 3-claim pitching prospect because I snagged both him and Whitney on the same day).
Ariel Arroyo (15 claims) pricey but decent 29 year old slugger
Rueben Uribe (1 claim) 32 year old OF (dropped. Again.)
Floyd Bailey (3 claims) 28 year old very solid vRHP 1B/OF
Geraldo Soto (4 claims) solid 25 year old Catching prospect (needs to work on his hitting)
Marty Croft (34 claims) good vLHP 1B prospect (but strikes out a LOT)
Vince Stevens (Free Agent) 32 year old ex-Saco decent vLHP 1B
Yasmany Ocampo (42 claims) 22 year old ex-Saco borderline pitching prospect
Zane Wakefield (79 claims) 25 year old ex-Saco decent SP
Daniel Altamirano (3 claims) 31 year old OF (dropped)

Indeed. Mata could be very nice. Good luck to Kal.

Dino 2052 Waiver Summary:
Alvarez (3 claims) 27 yr RF. Filled a clear need, but bat has disappointed.
Bellomo (9 claims) 34 yr stop gap SP. Has done well, threw a no hitter.
Ragan (2 claims) 28 yr glove first 2B. As advertised.
Bravo (1 claim) 27 yr glove first CF. Also as advertised.
Kang (2 claims) 27 SP. Has really struggled.
O'Dell (1 claim) 19 yr 1B prospect.
McDowelll (FA) 21 yr RP prospect. Low control experiment.
Chappell (FA) 25 yr RP. Has been terrific.

Didn't include guys no longer with organization.

3 14 pots aged 27-28 all for 2 or 3 claims seems pretty good. Not certain any will amount to anything tho.

Kang looks fantastic. Looks like a steal to me. Sometimes I filter at 26 and I end up missing those 27 year old guys. I often find 27-29 year old guys can go for a song, and still have several years of productivity left ;)

Good luck with the low control experiments. Mine haven't been too successful.

Mines 28. I think Kang will be fine once he gets some more SI gain. Not sure he should start though. But not my call haha

Hernandez has saved my season, and finally stabilized the shortstop position for a year while I wait for my two 16 POT minor leaguers to develop. Yeah, the salary is a little high, but I honestly don't know how this guy was available in free agency.
