Would a team care if the player on waivers tells them “please don’t sign me”
Like, would you, as the organization, have enough self respect for yourself to sign someone who said to your face that he doesn’t want to play for you?
Based on the low cost, I think his agent would have to think that most teams are potential claimants. Is he going just start calling all of the ones OBJ doesn't want to play for? I think it's a pretty silly idea.
