Maybe I did not read the rule correctly, so please feel free to elaborate for me on this example:

Shouldn't Nils have to draft this guy (as a 2013, not '12)?

Furthermore, if Nils did not draft him, and the draft ended, it seems like any Cubans that "may be signed" before the season would be allowed to be signed "first come first served" to our IBC teams?

MLB.com's Jesse Sanchez reports that Cuban catcher Yenier Bello has been cleared by the United States Office of Foreign Assets Control and is free to sign with a major league team.

Bello, 28, left Cuba for Ecuador early last year and later established residency in Mexico, but he wasn't eligible to sign with an MLB club until finally being cleared by the OFAC earlier this week. The right-handed hitter batted .274 with 13 homers in Cuba’s La Serie Nacional league in 2011 and belted 75 longballs and drove in 297 runs overall in his last five seasons in his native country. Sanchez says that the Dodgers, Cubs and Blue Jays are three clubs that have been linked to Bello. Jan 24 - 11:33 AM

He hasn't signed yet, therefore he's still eligible for the draft once Shawn gets it running again.
