So he’s dfa’d off the 40 man, but optioned to AAA. If you get taken off the 40 man, don’t u have to go through waivers?

The Astros did this with Straily last year. I don’t understand the purpose because they remain on the 40-man roster regardless of whether or not they clear and I don’t believe that he’s out of options either.

He has tech more than three years service which is where the confusion comes in but still has options left. In other words he’s still on 40 man. But the Rays asked that they don’t expose him to waivers as just a formality of the process.

Is says KEEPING him in 40-Man Roster

Optional waivers – means teams can’t put in a claim

Good. Saves him the embarrassment of not getting claimed.

Farquhar is not great, but he still is far better than Dana Eveland and Steve Geltz. Rays FO has interesting logic.

So, once Logan Morrison is cut loose next that trade will end up being Miller for Karns.
