Food for thought: If a senior had the option of coming back for another year, wouldn't he be considered a "jr" in the eyes of MLB, thus he would have the same leverage as a jr? If the player is a projected upper round draft pick, I would guess the MLB would treat him as a jr or risk not having him the next draft year. I am probably wrong in my assumption though.

I get your point but age has to be a consideration as well. In most cases, college juniors are drafted at 21. If you’re talking about a fifth year senior, possibly 23.

Theres obviously an advantage to starting short season A ball at 21 versus 23.
