Signed but not assigned yet. I assume DSL, but this year or next? Is he in Fort Myers?

Flores will not play until next season.

Are these players not allowed to play until next season? What's the rule concerning that? And what do they do until they do start playing?

If they play this year they have to be added to the 40-man a year earlier I believe. I think the vast majority sign 2018 contracts.

Any one have a projected timeline on flores as to where he starts and when he becomes a viable option to think about on the big league team? Are we looking at 4 to 5 years? Same timeline as devers? Not rushing anyone.

Any chance they'd send someone like Flores up for fall instrux?

Any chance they'd send someone like Flores up for fall instrux? They did the same with Devers the year he signed. So I say it's possible at least, but perhaps even likely. Edit: Jose Vinicio and Michael Almanzar as well. So high bonus position players have a chance, although the people deciding this have changed of course.

I'd say likely.

Sorry if I was confused I was going by this. If it didn't change the team control I figured everyone would just sign current year deals and play.

Yeah he signs a future contract, but the Rule 5 draft is determined by the year you sign your contract, full stop, I believe. The future contract has more to do with MLFA, I think, than Rule 5. I could certainly be wrong though.
