This is done in game as always

BBA News: Rule 5 Draft:
Brewster Baseball Association's Rule 5 draft will be held today. General managers should ensure that they have made all necessary roster moves prior to the start of the draft!

Rule 5 Draft Rules
--Only teams with empty slots on their expanded rosters can select a player in the draft.
--Players with more than 3 years of professional experience are eligible to be selected, unless they are protected on a team's expanded roster.
--Players drafted at the age of 18 or younger are protected for one additional year. They are eligible if they have more than 4 years of professional service.
--Each selected player must be kept on the selecting team's major league roster for the entire year, or be returned to his original team.
--Even if a selected player is subsequently traded, he must remain on that team's major league roster for the entire year.

Note: Eligible players are noted on the team transaction screen with a "#" symbol.

Any ruling on this? I work tonight and will be asleep tomorrow during the day, before working tomorrow night. I don't recall seeing the in game announcement for the Rule 5 draft like I had in past years.

It's still being discussed.

That said, I haven't heard if Matt has some magic rabbit to pull from his sleeve but I don't think it's possible to actually hold a Rule 5 with this specific file. So speaking only as me, I'd suggest you prep and export as if this is a run of the mill sim. If you're concerned, go ahead and prepare your 40 man roster to protect folks who need protecting.
