The Los Angeles Dodgers didn’t make a selection during the Major League portion of the 2019 MLB Rule 5 Draft on Thursday, but were active in the Minor League phase as they took infielder Carlos Sepulveda from the Chicago Cubs.
Sepulveda was the Dodgers’ only pick of the day. The selection — like all others during the Minors portion of the Rule 5 Draft — cost $24,000 and came with fewer restrictions. Sepulveda, and any player taken in the Minor League phases, can be placed on any roster in the Minors and does not have to be offered back to their original club.
