    Steve seems to be selling Erasmo a little short. A 25 YO with four years of control coming off a really nice season should have plenty of value.

    Love being able to read the chat like this, guess I was missing out on the transcript before, thought this was brilliant to read in this manner.
    FYI Parks and Rec isn’t a Sitcom – Its a half-hour comedy. While many sources will make this same mistake, a sitcom will have a studio audience/laugh track and use multi-camera setups ie Seinfeld, Big Bang Theory. Shows like Community, Modern Family and Parks and Rec are single camera comedies, no studio audience present and while more than one camera may be used to get more coverage in less time its not the same style.
    Fun fact – most Sitcoms (multi-cam) shows used 3 cameras (A,B,C) until Mork and Mindy. Robin Williams was so animated they had to add an extra camera this became known as (X cam) and that is now the standard on all sitcoms to use four cameras.

      Disagree. Parks and Recreation is a sitcom, as are all of the other shows you mentioned. Within the qualifier of ‘sitcom’, you can further split them into groups by number of cameras and whether or not they have a studio audience present, but they’re all still sitcoms. ‘Sitcom’ is simply short for ‘situation comedy’. From wikipedia: ‘sitcom is a genre of comedy that features characters sharing the same common environment, such as a home or workplace, with often humorous dialogue’. ‘Parks and Rec’ fits that to a T.

    Regarding the waiver question: I believe that priority within the player’s current league ONLY applies to players placed on revocable trade waivers (technically, “trade assignment waivers”), which are used only to make players eligible to be traded after the trade deadline. This priority is a vestige of the days when the AL and NL operated more independently from one another, and players being traded from one league to the other had to pass through revocable trade waivers at all times. Historically, the requirement that a player traded after the deadline pass through waivers in his current league and in the other league were added at different times, and for different reasons. To my knowledge, when players are placed on waivers for other purposes, like to be released (“outright release waivers”) or to be outrighted to the minors (“outright assignment waivers”), there is no priority given to teams within the player’s current league, no matter what time of year it is.
