I would like to get a clear picture on one of my minor leaguers, SP Matt Cain of the Giants.
As I understand the rule;
13.4.1 If a player drafted in the minor league draft is activated by his major league team prior to September 1, the team has 7 days to activate that player. If the player is not activated within this time period, he will be automatically placed on waivers.
Do I have to add him to my active roster or risk losing him on waivers, is this correct?
The Giants opening day was 4/3, so I have until 4/10 to add him.
Can I then pick up a minor league free agent?
Or am I allowed to keep Cain in the minors as long as I want?
