I reassert my initial point, not much since Happy Days.
As for Dan Winkler, he'll go into spring training with a chance to prove he's recovered from his broken arm. He'll be in a crowded group fighting for a few pen spots. But, IIRC, he'd have to be returned to the Rockies if he doesn't make the big league club so that's something going for him.
Last I read he was supposed to be ready to compete in Spring Training. So now we'd need to keep he and Armando Rivero so we don't lose him. Also, Chaz Roe, Jose Ramirez, and Sam Freeman are out of options.
The pend decisions will be interesting to follow this Spring.
From Fangraphs: http://www.fangraphs.com/library/rule-5-draft/
"Rule 5 Draft draftees must stay on the MLB roster all season. If they go to the DL, they must be active for at least 90 days — so if the draftee misses a whole season, they must be on the active roster for 90 days the following season to satisfy the Rule 5 Draft requirements."
