Somehow I doubt his stint with the Reds will be much longer than those with other teams. They’ll need to clear at least 8 spots from the 40 man roster, not including free agents, to protect guys from the Rule 5 draft. Kivlehan seems like a long shot to make it to opening day.

Is there a site that verifies who needs to be protected in every level in order to not be lost in the Rule 5 Draft? It would also be interesting to see what players could be made available in the Double-A or Triple-A portion of that draft.

I know I was wondering the same thing because with service time and stuff, I just can’t find out when they are eligible for the rule 5 draft.

The Reds made room for him by putting Cozart on the 60-day DL. I know his knee has issues post-surgery, but is there a diagnosis for exactly what’s wrong? I’m wondering if it’ll make it impossible to trade him this offseason.
