Very difficult to be a college Jr right now.Not really, at least not for most. Maybe for those that would sign a contract if they were drafted in rounds 15 -40, and why would you do that based on low signing bonus money for those rounds. Much worse for college seniors, high school seniors and Juco transfers. Elite college juniors are going to get drafted. Granted their odds are better if it’s s 10 round draft instead of 5.
Did you read the article?
Also, do you think 5 rounds is enough to draft all the Jr that should be drafted? I disagree mostly with your “at least not for most” comment.
I think the reason why they would not go to 10 is because they really have no place to put them unless they expanded their rosters. Without spring training, where do you draw the line in deciding who would remain and who would go on to play on a team.
They essentially would have the same issue as does D1 baseball.
