i think the big name that’s not there is kopp.

if i’m recalling the rule right, anybody drafted in 2008 who was over 18 when drafted, and anyone drafted in 2007 who was 18 or younger when drafted will be eligible.

hmm. steve hill sticks out some, but his star is pretty dim. and he has already made it through waivers. i don’t think anybody wants broderick. charles cutler is a pretty good hitter, but a stretch as a rule V take.

i don’t see anyone they’ve obviously missed.

Tom, do you know who remains exposed to the Rule 5 after these moves? That would be nice information to have.

Pretty excited about the showings our guys have made down there. Adams, Jackson, Taveras all looking like they can hold their own. Impressed by Taveras.
