In case you need a reminder that not all Rule 5 selections turn out like Odubel Herrera, look no further than new Phillie Taylor Featherston. Meghan Montemurro of The News Journal reported that the Phillies have acquired Featherston from the Angels today via trade.

Featherston spent the entire 2015 season with the Angels’ big league club after being selected by the Cubs in last year’s Rule 5 draft and immediately traded to Los Angeles.
