Reply to "Draft question about D1 College players"

Yeah I’ve been wondering about this, too.  Gonna start to see a lot of 24 year olds or even 25 year olds in low A ball.  Some players are in college for 6 years now (redshirt year, COVID year, 4 years of eligibility)

Better be able to accelerate through the minors quickly or they will 28-29 years old by the time they reach AAA.

This is one of the “silver linings” for the high school classes of 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023:  they will have to sit more as undergraduate players in college but will be 21-22 year old rookies in pro ball.  And/or will enter the workforce following their playing career at 22 with less student loan debt from not sticking around 5-6 years
