Can you explain the thinking that the Orioles would not receive a bonus pick if Rutschman wins ROY?

Sure the rule is that the player has to be on the Opening Day roster. He's not on the roster, the IL, or even a minor league roster. It's the weird limbo that the lockout created and no one is sure about how that affects the bonus pick.

Got it. I had forgotten the "Opening Day" stipulation. Thanks!
