As the virtual winter meetings approach, the Detroit Tigers will soon make a choice with the third pick in the 2020 Rule 5 draft on Dec. 10.
A player selected must stay on his new team's active roster for the entire 2021 season or be offered back to his former organization for $50,000. However, the player can be sent to the minors if he clears waivers and his original team doesn't want him back.
