Rule V, Gustave, Garcia and Verrett


Beef Supreme

Recommended Posts

Looks like the Orioles can trade for the rights for Rule V-ers Garcia and Verrett, if December's Jandel Gustave trade from the team that drafted him, Boston, to Kansas City is comparable. On Decemebr 11, Gustave was drafted and subsequently traded the same day -- it might be a little as an hour later. There would not have been time for Gustave to have cleared waivers.

Seems that acquiring teams have the opportunity to trade with the team from which he was acquired, bypassing waivers. I also suggest that this type of trade would nullify the Rule V mandate of having to keep the player on the MLB squad that year.

Does the Gustave trade from December parallel the situation that has been proposed that the Orioles could trade Boston and New York to keep Garcia and Verrett?

If this has been settled, mods please feel free to delete this thread.

Unless you want to take away the Rule 5 designation, you may trade a player as many times as you like through the season. You just can never take him off the 25 man roster without waiver exposure, and offer back to original team.

This was never up in the air.

No, it's different.

To any team. But the rule 5 stipulation is still attached.

Meaning the Orioles could trade Verrett to the Mets and they would not be able to option him? Now I am getting confused again.

Not that I believe.

In 1992, I think, the Braves selected their own player in the draft because they hadn't protected him.

I thought they traded for the pick rather than trading for the player. Can teams trade for Rule V picks?

Can't trade for picks. Technically Houston picked Garcia and we traded for him. But obviously the phone call was made to tell Houston to pick him.

    • In continuance of the discussion in the Bradisch thread re: Cowser as an "elite" OF: I think as the game slows for him he will be an plus defender in LF, hopefully with the Orioles.  However I argued his arm is not yet reliable and while there are little or no stats available that measure accuracy (as opposed to velocity) Savant places him around ~90th among OF's for the most important stat-advance attempts-far behind Hays whose arm is much more respected at #10, Tony and even Mullins "noodle arm" rate much higher.  https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/leaderboard/baserunning?type=Fld&sortColumn=rate_safe&sortDirection=asc  In each of the measurable arm metrics (other than velocity) he is far from "elite".  For advances/attempts to advance above average/succesful advances he is around ~90 in MLB and last among Orioles OF. When you juxtapose Hays's numbers onto CC one thing is evident-Hays has a well earned rep and guys generally don't run on him-guys at this point don't respect CC's arm.
    • I suspect it's because Urias has been hitting much better. I think Westburg/Mateo is better defensively, but it's not a big gap. Good chance this will be a close, low-scoring game. I like having Mateo on the bench in a close game so he can create a run, and some havoc, as a pinch-runner (especially when Mullins is in the starting lineup). Though it doesn't show in the boxscore, his feints from first base were a big factor yesterday.
    • Without doing any research this has been a feeling I have had too.    It is almost like the bats are trained for world class competition but when .475 clubs throw today's Joe Saunderses it can mess up the calibration. Throwing Cody Bradford and Andrew Heaney against the Orioles lineup probably isn't a sustainable October strategy. The hitting pitching balance Elias has kept so far, I agree it is more on Gunnar and Adley to lead the group beating the world's best pitchers. I hope Gunnar gets a Strahm rematch today after yesterday's first ball hack.    If the World Series is 7 close games, Gunnar probably sees Strahm 4-5 times.
    • “Preferred catcher” then. Would have been insanity to start McCann today.
    • Can Cook be a serviceable utility guy at the ML level?  His offensive numbers are better at Triple-A than in previous minor league seasons.
    • Because it’s a RHP, Urias has been hitting well and Mateo offers speed off the bench if needed in late innings.
