Rule 5 Draft

Some serious heavy lifting going on right here 
 
Here is the list of every player eligible for the 2010 Rule 5 Draft. This list is made up from many hours of sifting through every team's affiliates.
 
The bolded players are the ones who are especially worth keeping an eye on. If I had to pick one sleeper, I'm stuck between several but Doug Arguello would probably be my pick.

I hope you enjoy!

  1. Whoever he is, that SPANdemonium guy sure knows how to do reasearch, write an article, and he definetly knows his minor leaguers...I'm sure he's a pretty cool guy as well

    wait

  2. What baffles me is why didn't they put Emaus and Loewen on the 40 man to protect them from the Rule 5?

    Especially with Loewen - if the organization is going to spend all that time and money grooming him, why risk the potential of another team picking him up?

  3. First thing I see: There's a guy named Mark HAMBURGER - awesome. Second thing I see is about Loewen. I'm betting the thinking is that even if he gets claimed, what are the chances he sticks around in the majors with another team all year in 2011? Maybe AA is just playing the odds on that one. Emaus to me seems more ready, and thus more likely to be picked.

  4. Loewen is out of options. If he was added to the 40-man roster, he'd have to clear waivers in the spring to go to the minors. So since the league will get there shot at him one way or another, Rule V is a better option plus it keeps a roster spot open.

    If we lose him in the Rule V, we have first shot at getting him back should the claiming team no longer want him on their active roster (25-man). If he was claimed on waivers in the Spring, we would lose that right to him if the claiming team wanted to send him to the minors.

  5. What Gil said.

    SPANdemonium, since you work so hard, you should get an MLB wide list of players on 40 man rosters without options.

  6. I'd personally be surprise if Adam Loewen was claimed. If this guy wasn't a former stud pitcher, no one would be talking about his hitting abilities, because he has yet to show much promise.

  7. Mark Hamburger? No thanks, I'll have an Isaiah Froneberger. Mmmmmmmm

  8. You are either insanely passionate about your baseball or you've got way too much time on your hands. Or both. Either way, that's a lot available. I'm with Ian on the strangeness regarding Loewen and Emaus. AA must be up to something...

  9. Wow. Thank you so much for putting all this together. I know I appreciate it, and I'll bet there are countless others who do as well.

  10. Thanks guys and I hope you all enjoy it. Show your friends, grandparents, girl next door, teacher, parents, brother, sister, whoever. I did work really hard on it so thank you guys for the nice words...

    Anyway, due to his very strong AFL campaign that ended less than a week ago, I think he does get picked. He is probably worth the risk, and my guess is that if a team decides not to keep him after spring, they might work out a deal with the Jays to keep him.

    @Xave Obviously their names are funny, but both are nasty and are probably going to get taken in the first round. Hamburger is more of a sure thing. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised to see AA take a gamble on him.

    @Matt Emaus probably isn't more than a Wes Helms at the big league level, but I do think he should have been protected. To answer your question, both!
