Blash and Perdomo were actually Rule V picks, not waiver claims.

(Although I'm unsure if they technically go through waivers so I may be half-wrong there)

[Tobywan]

"Technically", it is both, but on the MLB and individual team transactions pages they are all generically listed as "claimed off waivers".

[realmofotalk]

Sigh.....now what?

I don't want to get whichever Johnny Cueto shows up like every other start or fucking Samardzija and his near-5.00 ERA.

Figures the Giants get both, so now Cueto/Samardzija/Bumgarner will be the new Maddux/Glavine/Smoltz for the next decade.
