Rule V Draft, 2014

[bmfc1]

The Rule V draft is Thursday at 10 AM. I'm guessing that the Mets select a reliever and hope they can hide him for a season in their inflated bullpen.

Yep, they drafted a pitcher named Rosin (how appropriate) from the Phillies.

And they did not lose any of their players.

They should try to find a hitter named "Pinetar."

Looks like a starter to me.

Texas Rangers draft Russell Wilson

Memories of Seth Rosin? He was selected and traded to the Dodgers.

They did this a couple of years ago too. Shady under the table agreements. What does Alderson get? An upgraded hotel room when the Mets stay in LA?

C'mon, KEMP!

I was hoping we drafted him so he could be flipped to Denmark in exchange for a Prime Minister to be named later.

I'll take Puig.
OE: I just checked out their minor league teams, and they don't seem to have any shortstops the Mets might want.
