So in the case of a Major League waiver (the post deadline type), when a player is claimed, do they get the player outright or is there some sort of obligation to work out a trade or compensation?

I presume that there isn't an obligation to, but the teams try to in the spirit of trying to do business more or less fairly.

You might want to leave a comment on Baseball Analysts and see if Keith answers it there.
