In December of 2017 the Cincinnati Reds picked up Mitch Nay in the Rule 5 draft. It wasn’t the one that most people know about where players must stick to the 25-man roster all year. No, instead it was the Triple-A version. The rules for eligibility for that would take too much to explain, so we’ll skip that. Unlike the big league version, a player taken in the Triple-A Rule 5 draft does not have to stick on any particular level roster. And the cost is much less, too. The Reds had to pay the Blue Jays $12,000 for the selection.
Have the Reds found a breakout guy in Mitch Nay?
