Brian Barton, of, 25, Cardinals
Transactions: Signed as nondrafted free agent by Indians from Miami, May 14, 2005.The Goods: Power, average speed, above-average defense and arm.Spring Stats: .351/.424/.596 in 57 AB.Status: The most intriguing Rule 5 selection, Barton’s exposure to the Rule 5 process may go down as a gamble as bad as the Mets decision to leave Flores, then just 22, unprotected in 2006. Barton had surgery to repair his injured right knee in the offseason, an injury that hindered him a bit in 2007 as he struggled to repeat his breakout 2006 campaign.
