Okay, we're ready to lift the signing freeze.

Gist: starting at 6 pm EST tomorrow, you can begin emailing claims to me at shawnwalsh@ibcleague.com. The deadline for submitting claims is Wednesday at 6 pm EST.

If you submit a claim, you must also include any necessary releases to keep your roster legal or the claims will not be valid. Include instructions for your claims if applicable.

Starting at 6 or so on Wednesday, I'll process them (taking care of Signs/Releases for you) as fast as I can and will post that it's open season on free agents once I'm done.

Waiver results:

Cardinals (4) claim Yusmeiro Petit, release Kyle Russell
Dodgers (6) claim Evan Scribner, release empty
Athletics (7) claim Pedro Ciriaco, release Aneury Rodriguez
Brewers (15) claim Cesar Jimenez, release Tyler Walker
Red Sox (21) claim Craig Counsell, release empty
