Roster Issues & Compensation

[Mariners GM (David)]

4.22.24

Hayden Wesneski v. Washington Nationals
During the 2022 Rule V 1st Round Draft - Washington selected Hayden Wesneski SP NYY 1st overall. Wesneski was already drafted and owned by Kevin (MIA) from the 2019 7th Round FYPD draft but was not added to his Team Sheet. Since we have record of Kevin (MIA) drafting Wesneski in 2019, he will be a Marlin going forward. 

As a result, we'll award Washington with the 1st overall pick in the upcoming Rule V draft to compensate him for the loss.

Jacob Young v. Texas Rangers
Jacob Young was drafted by the Texas Rangers in the 5th Round of the 2021 FYPD. He was added to TEX as well as Washington's Team Roster mistakenly. Washington then traded him to TBR and TBR then traded him to MIN, while still officially being in Texas' MiLB. Since he's being rostered on MIN 40 man team as well as being traded multiple times, Bill has graciously accepted leaving him on MIN roster and taking a compensation pick in return.

Bill (TEX) will be awarded a 3rd Round compensation pick (3.31) for this genuine action.

Thanks Dave. I would have settled for taking a pick away from Sanders, but this is fine.
