Reply to "Draft"

Here's an example of a specific player:

Joe Abellera is a local kid who graduated from HS in 2004 (same year as my son, who had played against him) and was drafted that year by the MN Twins. He signed a contract with the Twins in June 2004. He played for the Twins minor league in 2004 and 2005.

Joe is now playing baseball for a DII team in Minnesota:

So at least in this case, a player was able to play NCAA DII after signing a pro contract and playing MiLB.
