That is funny that you posted this. As I was sitting there trying to figure out why they would change it it occurred to me that these players would be required to pass waivers to be reassigned to their minor league teams. Thanks for the explanation and another great new feature of OOTP 10!

Now you will need to pass him through waivers, just as in real life, and this should help to prevent the human player from hording minor league depth. The human player had a big advantage over the AI in that regard before. I'd guess that if the game had always worked this way, no one would find it odd, but since this is a new change in vX, it may take some getting used to. I just wanted to point out that there are good reasons for the change.
