San Francisco Giants Set 40-Man Roster, Protect Minor League Players from Rule 5 Draft
Prior to Tuesday evening's 6 p.m. ET deadline to protect eligible players from the Rule 5 Draft, the San Francisco Giants added six minor league players to their 40-man roster.
Among the players added are minor league prospects Tristan Beck, Jose Cruz, Marco Luciano, Luis Matos, Keaton Winn and Brett Wisely. These players will be protected from the Rule 5 Draft at the Winter Meetings in three weeks in San Diego.
The Giants have also designated Sam Delaplane, Jarlin Garcia, Dom Nunez, Drew Stotman, Meibrys Viloria, Jason Vosler and Colton Welker for assignment.
As of the Nov. 15 deadline, the Giants have a full-40 players on their 40-man roster, with no open roster spots. Their offseason is far from over, though.
