Non-Tender Candidates and Rule V Protection

Post by Talkin' Baseball »

Rostered players who could be non-tendered could be part of any small deal, or could be add-ons to get larger deals done: Luken Baker, Michael Siani, Matt Koperniak, Ian Bedell, Chris Roycroft, and Riley O Brien.

Players needing to be rostered this offseason to protect from Rule V who could be included in any deal to help get it done: Cesar Prieto, Max Rajcic, Pete Hansen, and Brycen Mautz.

Sadly, Baker and Koperniak's days are likely numbered. They have played their way out of favor this year.

Looks like Barrero went first although I don't know why we needed Hampson instead. Better defense, I suppose.

I would add prieto the list also. There’s no place for him on the team and will likely be traded in a deal or allowed to be picked
