Players Who Have Been Placed On Revocable Waivers
Alfonso Soriano, Carlos Marmol and Roy Oswalt are the only players known to have cleared waivers so far this month (not counting the long list of players who have been traded). But we know other players have been placed on waivers, even though some of the details surrounding those cases remain unclear. Here's a list of the players that have been placed on revocable waivers this month, along with what we know about each player:
- Cliff Lee, Phillies - claimed and pulled back by Philadelphia.
- Carlos Lee, Marlins - was on waivers August 2nd. Has either cleared waivers or been claimed and pulled back by Miami.
- Mike Aviles, Red Sox - was on waivers August 10th. Has either cleared waivers or been claimed and pulled back by Boston.
- Aaron Cook, Felix Doubront and Andrew Miller, Red Sox - were on waivers August 16th. Have either cleared waivers or been claimed and pulled back by Boston.
- Edinson Volquez, Padres - was on waivers last week. Has either cleared waivers or been claimed and pulled back by San Diego.
- Jon Lester, Jacoby Ellsbury, Red Sox - placed on waivers four days ago. Have either cleared waivers or been claimed and pulled back by Boston.
- Justin Upton, Diamondbacks - claimed off of waivers by several teams. If Arizona places him on waivers again this year the waivers will no longer be revocable.
- Scott Hairston and Andres Torres, Mets - placed on waivers two days ago. Hairston has been claimed and could be traded. Torres could still be claimed.
- Jason Vargas and Kevin Millwood, Mariners - placed on waivers recently.
- Daisuke Matsuzaka, Red Sox - placed on waivers recently.
- Justin Morneau, Twins - claimed off of waivers by an unknown team. No deal expected.
Please note: This post concerns players placed on revocable Major League waivers. Many other players have been placed on release waivers or outright waivers, but those waivers are irrevocable -- teams can't pull players back off of irrevocable waivers. This post was first published on August 23rd.
