The Rule 5 draft is an opportunity for teams to select potentially blocked prospects and allow them to play. Could the Brewers make a selection this year?
Thursday, December 10th is the upcoming Rule 5 Draft. The Brewers have only taken 3 players in the Major League portion of the Rule 5 Draft since David Stearns took over. In 2015 the Brewers took Colin Walsh and Zack Jones, in 2016, the Brewers took Caleb Smith, who was promptly traded to the Chicago Cubs.
