Podcast: Rule 5 decisions and 40-man rosters

November 22nd, 2023

On this Thanksgiving edition of the MLB Pipeline Podcast, Jim Callis, Jonathan Mayo and Jason Ratliff dish on the Rule 5 decisions teams made last week -- from the Top 100 prospects who were added to 40-man rosters to interesting moves made by clubs to protect or not protect players.

The conversation continues with a look back to the Arizona Fall League one last time, tying in players who faced Rule 5 decisions around the circuit to the ranking of the Top 25 prospects in the AFL.

For dessert, the trio dive into Callis' much-debated long-term rookie rankings and, as always, the episode closes with a question from the listener mailbag, this time about Guardians' No. 4 prospect .
