With baseball's Rule 5 Draft approaching on December 9, I present to you a rerun. Last December I wrote a Rule 5 primer, which explains some of the basics of this unique event which takes place during the winter meetings.
The Rule 5 Draft order is the reverse order of the 2010 season finish. Based on this criteria, Houston should be selecting fifth (after Seattle, Baltimore, Washington, and the Cubs). Four clubs with worse records than the Astros are ineligible for the draft as they already have 40 players on their 40-man roster.
As best I have been able to determine these are the players in the Astros' organization vulnerable to the Rule 5 Draft.
Clack at THE CRAWFISH BOXES posted this article about some of the players from other organizations who may be available on December 9.
