Outright waivers are used to send a cost-controlled player who is in his 2nd year or later down to the minor leagues. When you place a player on outright waivers, other teams have 72 hours to claim the player. If the player is claimed, he will go to the claiming team and must be placed on that team's 40-man roster and paid by that team. If a player passes through outright waivers unclaimed, you may send him to the minor leagues. You may not put players on veteran contracts on waivers, only cost controlled players (2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year, 5th year, or 6th year).
Waiver claims are honored on a first-come, first-served basis. Teams with worse records do not receive any kind of priority. The only exception to this is if a GM waives a player drafted in the Rule 5 draft, in which case the player must stay on waivers for the full 72 hours even if claimed, and the GM who lost the player in the Rule 5 draft may claim the player with top priority at any time during the 72 hours. If the original GM does not claim the player, he goes to the GM who made the first claim.
BE WARNED: IF YOU PUT A PLAYER ON WAIVERS AND HE IS CLAIMED WITHIN 72 HOURS, YOU LOSE HIM!

Outright waivers are closed until the completion of the Rule 5 draft. Starting next season, outright waivers will be closed starting at the end of the Pro-GM regular season until the completion of the Rule 5 draft.
The reasoning behind this is so that people can't simply waive and demote the players that they'd otherwise be non-tendering. I am calling Aybar back up and will non-tender him, since that move was made after the trade deadline - even though this rule wasn't in affect then, it was the only waiver of the season so it seems only fair.

Outright waivers are open. If you manage to pass a cost-controlled player through outright waivers into your minor leagues and keep him there until the start of the season, he will be given a minor league salary at that time and will keep that salary even if called up. However, if a player is claimed within 72 hours of being placed on waivers he will go to the claiming team.
