Most players who are worth anything get claimed as a procedural move to ensure that the player won't get a shot at being traded to a rival contender. In this scenario, it is most unlikely that the team who owns the player of value will do anything other than revoke the waiver.

Conversely, if a guy like Phil Nevin were claimed, I am pretty certain the Rangers would allow the waiver claim.
