He's not exposed to other teams apparently.
The “essentially” regarding the Eveland move is needed as a qualifier to the actual transaction. Technically, Eveland was designated for assignment, which often means a team has given up hope on a player and is willing to lose him on waivers.
Assistant general manager David Forst, however, explained that in Eveland’s case, he simply needs to clear “optional waivers” over the next 48 hours before being officially optioned because he made his Major League debut three years ago.

Shut out the Red Sox the other night.
What is that 85-88 mph pitch he’s getting strikeouts on? Is that a slider?
This may be a dumb question…I’m not that great at calling pitches.

The dance of the puppets
The rusted chains of prison moons

The tournaments begun.

think some team could claim on optional waivers and screw the a's
but that breaks some sort of gentlemen’s agreement
