The MLB Winter Meetings are underway this week and while they have been converted to a virtual event because of the pandemic, they nonetheless will conclude with the annual Rule 5 Draft on Thursday.
The Los Angeles Dodgers added right-handed pitchers Gerardo Carrillo, Andre Jackson and Edwin Uceta, as well as outfielder Zach Reks to their 40-man roster to protect against potentially losing any of them in this year’s Rule 5 Draft.
Carrillo, Jackson, Reks and Uceta all were part of the Dodgers’ 60-man player pool this past season and spent the year training at their USC site.
