Rule 5 draft today

Post by Secret Weapon »

Seems like we could lose a couple of players, such as a guy we got in the Pham trade. A shame we couldn't have found a way to flip some of this talent in a trade for a reliever or something already.

I wouldn't be opposed to grabbing him and then paying to get him outright so we could stash him in the minors. Our system isn't overflowing with lefties. Could maybe make a reliever out of him for almost nothing.

We lost Chris Ellis, one of the guys we got in the Jaime Garcia trade.

Minor league reliever with a good K/BB ratio. Depth player. Good guy to have around if needed.

Fun fact: Ellis is pitching his guts out in the same Dominican league Tommy Pham is playing in right now. 3 starts, 17.2 IP, 0 ER

Would rather have Ellis. Oh well.
