The St. Louis A's are outrighting Jemile Weeks to the minors. Scott can fill in how much time everyone has to claim him via the fablindbids email address.

Sorry to hijack this thread but how does this work? Do we submit whatever we want to pay for him to FA blind bids or does his current contract follow him at all?

It's in the Rules. I'll go back and look at it in detail tonight. Yes, you can submit any offer, league minimum or above, and depending on what the high bid is, that might affect how much the previous owner is on the hook for.

I think any team can claim him and take his whole contract. If multiple people claim, then the team that is lowest in the standings gets him.

Not what I see in the rules, at least not the one rule thread I was looking at.

3) Players with a salary can also be optioned off the 40-man roster, but this player must pass through irrevocable waivers. However we set it up (either on Fantrax or via our blind bid system through fablindbids@gmail.com, all to be monitored on ProBoards), the waiver claim priority would be based on the current worst to first Roto standings at the time, which goes along with MLB's irrevocable waivers system. See League Constitution and Releasing Players section for a claiming team's salary cap responsibility. If a player is successfully passed through waivers and fills a spot in your Minor League system, his major league salary still counts against the cap and he must be back on your 40-man roster by the deadline that player options can be exercised near the beginning of the offseason.

For our league records - Jemile Weeks was claimed off waivers by Chicago Jays after St. Louis A's outrighted him.
