Rule 5 Question

Post by udlb58 » Sun Aug 28, 2016 10:07 pm

What is the Pro Service setting for Rule 5? Is it only 4 years? I feel like there were guys last year who were at 4 years who I didn't have to protect, yet I lost Jose Rodriguez last year, who only had 3 years of Pro Service at the 2026 Rule 5 draft.

If I look in game, 1B Joe Brandon (WL) has 3 yrs, 185 days and it says he is ineligible(less than 5 pro years); RF Neil Davis (AA) has 3 yrs, 185 days and it sasy he is ELIGIBLE. What gives? Just trying to get a handle on this so I can plan in advance. It is frustrating to trade for a player and have him pop up as Rule 5 eligible when he doesn't have the service time that would suggest he should be eligible.
