The original team would have been responsible for the contract if not selected in Rule 5, so more correct for them to get the salary.

I think IRL a team that has claimed a Rule V player can negotiate with the original club to, basically, waive the Rule V status of the player. The claiming team technically returns the Rule V draftee, who is then traded back to the claiming team for whatever compensation was agreed upon. That way, you can keep a player you'd like to develop but whom you can't afford to carry on the ML roster for a season without exposing them to waiver claims.
That's probably way too complicated to slot into OOTP, but it would be cool if it were possible..... Also, isn't the 90-day-active rule fairly recent (like within the last decade)? Put in to stop the old fashioned way of keeping your Rule V, namely discovering an "injury" that required an extensive DL stay that just happened to end around September 1.... |
