75 Players Chosen in Rule 5 Draft

Monday, December 13, 2004

ANAHEIM, CA--A total of 75 players, including three from the Las Vegas 51s’ roster in the Major League phase, were selected this morning in the Major League Rule 5 Draft. Forty-six of the 75 players taken in the draft are pitchers, including eight of the 12 chosen in the Major League phase.

Players left unprotected may be selected for $50,000 in the Major League phase of the Rule 5. Any selected player must then remain on the drafting club’s active Major League roster during the 2005 season or be offered back to the original club for $25,000. The Triple-A ($12,000) and Double-A ($4,000) phases take place after the MLB phase.

Right-hander Angel Garcia off the Rochester roster was the first pick in the Major League phase by the Arizona Diamondbacks. Garcia appeared in just seven games this past season for the Swing of the Quad Cities in the Midwest League. He was 2-1 with a 4.50 ERA. After the Rule 5 Draft, Garcia was traded to Tampa Bay for cash considerations.

In the Triple-A phase, six of the 51 players were plucked from the Akron Aeros roster, including 2003 Rolaids Relief Man Award winner Lee Gronkiewicz. Altoona lost five players in the Triple-A phase, while Carolina and Jacksonville each had four players selected.

Here are the 75 players that were selected this morning…
