"He wasn't released, he was claimed off waivers; that means the team that had him wanted to keep him and tried to send him down, but another team (first the Padres and now us) picked him up."

If they wanted to keep him they would have pulled him back.

Remember, most players on the Astros would be DFA, released, or sent down if on other MLB teams..

What I mean is they would have preferred to keep him in their organization, otherwise they would have simply released him outright instead of DFA'ing him.
