Based upon a few comments, I dug a little bit deeper into the Rule 5 eligible players, and it appears that two of them should not in fact be eligible. Removed from the list are Clint Everts and Franciso Guzman.
The updated list is as follows:

Any chance we drop Tony Blanco from the 40 man roster? He seems like a waste at this point-

Not much talent there. Wouldn’t be surprised to see a couple of the recent minor league signings taken (like Booker last year) - Ardoin, Lewis, etc might be tempting to other teams. How is Manriquez defensively? If he’s any good at all, I could see him getting taken to be some team’s backup or third C.

Defensively, Manriquez is a work in progress.
