SAN DIEGO — All 30 Major League clubs gathered on the last day of the Winter Meetings in San Diego on Wednesday to take part in the Rule 5 Draft, which gives clubs an opportunity to add low-risk, high-ceiling talent to their organizations .
Below is a rundown of this year’s Rule 5 Draft picks, with the order dictated by the reverse order of last season’s standings; the Rule 5 format is unlike the amateur Draft (Rule 4), whose order is now determined in part by a Lottery. A team must have room on its roster to make a pick, so each team’s 40-man status is included in parentheses. Clubs pay $100,000 to select a player in the Major League phase of the Rule 5 Draft, but if that player doesn’t stay on the active Major League roster for the full season, he must be offered back to his former team for $50,000.
There is also a Minor League phase of the Rule 5 Draft, with the costs rising from $12,000 to $24,000 for a Triple-A pick (anyone not protected on a big league or Triple-A roster is eligible). The Double-A phase has been eliminated. Players selected in this portion of the Rule 5 Draft are not subject to any roster restrictions with their new organizations.
