The offseason approaches, and with that comes the Winter Meetings and the annual Rule 5 Draft. Every December, teams around MLB are given the chance to draft players from other organizations who are not placed on their team's 40-man secondary roster. The drafting team may keep that player as long as they remain on the major league roster for the entire length of the season. Players can only be taken in the Rule 5 Draft if they have not been placed on the secondary roster within five years (if they were signed at 18 or younger) or four years (if they were signed at 19 or older) of being initially signed by their team.
