Rule 5 Draft results: Phillies take Rays OF Tyler Goeddel No. 1

Complete results for the MLB phase of the annual Rule 5 Draft.

The MLB phase of the Rule 5 Draft took place Thursday morning, with teams selecting players from other franchises’ systems.

Players who signed at 18 or younger with five years of professional experience or players who signed at 19 or older with four pro seasons under their belt are eligible, unless protected by being on their organization’s 40-man roster. Rule 5 draftees that stood out last season included Oakland’s Mark Canha and Texas’s Delino DeShields.

Rule 5 mandates that players selected in the Major League phase must remain on the active big-league roster throughout the season that follows. Players cannot be sent to the minors without clearing waivers, and then being offered back to their original team for $25,000 (half the cost of making a selection).

Only teams with room on their 40-man roster can make selections, so the Tigers, Mariners, Red Sox, Diamondbacks, Rays, Indians and Twins did not make any picks. Once teams pass the first time, they can no longer participate in the drafting process.

Teams with one spot remaining (the Braves, Rockies, Orioles, Yankees, Mets, Royals and Cubs) that made selections were then ineligible for the next set of picks.
