The draft is a happy day for a few and a big disappointment for most. The new CBA has changed the way organizations draft. First couple rounds is all about talent provided the player is agreeable to the deal. Rounds 5-10, even some earlier selections, are simply part of the organizations financial plan.
Often we see 1st round talent slip to the late rounds or not drafted at all. The actual signing period clears up some of the strategy used by MLB clubs. You will see players drafted early signing well below the minimum and others drafted much later getting a lot more.
Before the new CBA, we would see PG All Americans like Dillon Betances and Dextor Fowler, get picked after the first 10 rounds and still get late 1st rd money. Also guys like Kris Bryant from nothing to being one of the first picks out of college these days.
