Fan, you don't think there are thousands of HS and college players that didn't get drafted that would be happy to sign to have the chance to make it to the MLB? There are A LOT of very good ball players out there willing to take a chance that didn't get drafted. I'm not talking about general population people. I'm talking about good HS players and college seniors that didn't get drafted for some reason.

There are around 1280 players drafted. There are around 13,500 college seniors. Maybe not all of them want to play baseball for a living, but I'm sure there is a pretty big pool of players who would be willing to take that chance.
