3) Owners control the rights of their prospects for no longer than 2 years. At the end of 2 years (from time of draft) a prospect must either be promoted to the MLB roster or released.
For prospects that have been on a team for 1 year (those drafted in 2019) it's up to the manager to decide whether they want to promote them or not. Alonso, D. May, Paddack..... are examples of this.
2019 carded draftees like Naylor, Chavis, Cease....aren't going to help out this year so they weren't promoted.
What caught my eye, and maybe this is what your are referring to, is that Zac Gallen wasn't promoted by chilliards.
It's not to late however.
5) Prospects can be promoted to the major league roster at any time, provided there is roster space available.....
So he can promote Gallen with a pick in the FA draft. BTW, updating my last notice. re. participation, Clint let me know that he is returning. So we are all here.
