Multiple homers, double up runners, Waivers

In v5 didn't the pbp say something about "Back to Back to Back Homers" ?? I had this situation and the pbp only read "Back to Back"

When I take claim a player off waivers he goes to my AAA roster, not sure if that's a problem or not

SITUATION: 0 outs, runner on 1st. batter lines out to the pitcher who doubles up the runner at first. Both outs are correctly recorded, but the runner stays on 1st.

IRL when a team signs a player to a major league contract or claims someone off waivers they have to have room on both 40 man and 25 man rosters. I also think this shoulw be fixed. But it might require more AI intellegence

I don't think the waiver player being sent to AAA is a bug. As I recall, any players you sign/acquire is, by default, dropped on to your AAA roster, and it's up to you to determine where they wind up.

It's not a bug, however that isn't how the waiver rule is supposed to work. If you claim a player, he is supposed to be on your 40 and ML roster, until he clears waiver if you want to send him down.
