I actually see the Reds taking 2 guys this year in the rule 5, I think that was their plan all along TBH. Some names that are intriguing:
1) Victor Vodnik-RHP (Braves)- can be stashed in BP
2) Dominic Canzone-OF (DBacks)- if he's there at 4, were taking him.
3) Kameron Misner-OF (Rays) - #2 option after Canzone.
4) Erik Miller-LHP (Phillies) #2 LHRP to be stashed in BP
-I only went with 4 guys because I feel the Reds will take one of these guys and actually all are better than what we saw in 2022, and all are close enough to be given a chance at the mlb level.

The Reds would have to have 2 open spots on their 40 man roster to draft 2 players in the Rule 5 draft today. They don't have 2 at the moment.

Not to mention the likelihood of 1 let alone 2 making it all year on the 26 man is near zero, it hamstrings the organization dearly when making roster decisions.
we have guys that can be released very easily, our 40 man isnt very good!!
I would concur that all four guys listed should be able to make this team. I want Misner or Miller.
where oan we hear thr Rule V players drafted at?
Draft has started. Go to MLB.TV and feel the excitement of the Reds organization at the winter meetings.

I have no idea how he is in the field, but the bat looks interesting:

So, it sounds like he is okay at best behind the dish but has versatility around the diamond.

Reds select Blake Sabol from Pirates...there is your third catcher...he also plays outfield, and is what he is listed at, on the draft list.
