Blue Jays stand to lose talent in Rule 5 Draft

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- The final day of the annual Winter Meetings should be rather eventful for the Blue Jays as they took to add some talent in the Rule 5 Draft but also run the risk of losing one of their better prospects.

Toronto has not lost a player in the Rule 5 Draft since infielder Brad Emaus in 2010 but that might change Thursday morning. The Blue Jays have several players at risk of being selected because of a 40-man roster that had a limited number of open spots.

Catcher Max Pentecost, right-handers Jordan Romano and Andrew Case and left-hander Angel Perdomo are among the possible candidates who might be swept up.
