Time is ticking away... Rule 5 draft is coming 12/5!! Their are only a couple more sims to get this done.. So start making decisions now, so we have smooth transition and save Nick some last minute roster moves...

Here is the reminder and info that Cory posted after the World Series..

All players on the secondary 40-man roster are PROTECTED from the rule 5 draft. You will need to look at your Rule 5 eligible players and move the ones you want to protect to the 40-man secondary roster. This can be done by looking at your roster in-game and looking for players in the minors with a (#) sign by their name. You simply drag them to the 40-man roster window, NOT the ACTIVE roster! DO NOT ADD THEM TO THE ACTIVE ROSTER AS WELL OR YOU WILL START PAYING THEM AS I HAVE STATED ABOVE! ONLY add them to the 40-man secondary roster, players protected will have (*) next to their name.

Keep in mind, once a player is on the 40-man roster, the only way to remove him is to have him clear waivers. It is vital to the success of your franchise that you take the time to calculate your 40-man roster on each and every move. I would assume that all teams will have their 40 man secondary roster full by the Rule 5 draft or risk the chance of losing good prospects to other teams. You do not receive compensation for losing a Rule 5 draft player, so get protecting!!!

Thanks, Kendall
