Notable recent examples involving the Padres include Oliver Perez, whom San Diego loaned to Yucatan twice in 2000. More recently, they loaned another lefty, Juan Oramas, to Mexico City in 2009. You may remember that Oramas nearly threw a perfect game for Lake Elsinore last Monday. The Mets loaned two of their minor league Rule 5 selections—Rolando Valdez and Orlando Lara—to the Mexican League this spring. Naturally, both players were plucked from the Padres. In the case of the Reds and Oscar Castro, yes, Cincinnati will retain his rights and he may suit up for a domestic farm club next year as he has in the past.
