how long is a player on waivers in mlb
Major League Baseball transactions If a player is claimed and the waiving team exercises its rescission option, the waiving team may not use the option again for that player in that seasonâ€”a subsequent waiver would be irrevocable with a claiming team getting the player essentially for nothing.[6] If no team claims a player off waivers after three business days, the player has cleared waivers and may be assigned to a minor league team, traded (to any team), or released outright.
