Rule V Draft offers final chance at fruitful Meetings

[bq] The list of 20 names to know has 13 pitchers on it, nearly all of whom have the profile to fill a bullpen role. Red Sox right-handers Ryan Pressly and Josh Fields, Rockies righty Coty Woods and Royals lefty Jon Keck are among the potential relievers who have been mentioned in the early run-up to the Rule 5 Draft.

Position players aren’t as popular—four out of the 12 Major League-phase selections a year ago were hitters—but Arizona Fall League MVP Chris McGuiness, fellow first baseman Nate Freiman of the Padres and toolsy outfielder Destin Hood are on the eligible list.[/bq]

Hamilton! Santana! McGuiness!
