So the combine was new my son's draft year. Per his advisor, he did not go. May or may not have hurt him, who knows. It is definitely something the MLB is pushing more and more. They are trying to create buzz a la NBA/NFL combines but I think it is as much/more about media/visibility as it is about really giving the teams data they did not previously have. Unless your son has something to overcome/an improved tool to showcase, I think his advisor is saying it's not worth the risk of a bad showing/the cost etc.

Did your son do the individual team workouts before the draft?
