This team drafts 12th and has no players on IR but does have one player in the "minors" and how that work is explained below. He was listed last season so has this coming season and one more to be listed as such if the new owner chooses to keep him there.

Minors (1):
P 1987 Kirk McCaskill 1/3
Rosters: Players may be kept on IR until they have an eligible season. Players with an eligible season but maybe not a good one for one to three seasons may be kept in the "Minors" for up to 3 seasons. Up to 3 players must be listed in your Pre Draft Roster and must be tracked by 1/3, 2/3, or 3/3 or simply 1, 2, or 3 next to the player. After 3 seasons the player must be activated, cut, or listed as IR if eligible. Players may return to minors if they have been listed there before from IR or active roster. Edited 12/26/17 (Note players may start the 3 season process over if they leave and come back) Added note 06/28/20 for clarification.

Looking at the trade thread this team also traded a 3rd and a 1B for a 2nd and an OF so it has two 2nds in the 1989/1917 draft but no 3rd.
