According to Ken Rosenthal’s report in The Athletic, the MLB Players Association has rejected MLB’s proposal for the 2020 draft ($). While it’s still set for the originally scheduled date of June 10, on a virtual basis rather than live in Omaha, slot and undrafted player bonuses are among the topics up for debate.
While MLB’s new proposal featured 10 rounds, twice the minimum agreed to back in March, it placed significant limitations on slot bonuses and the number of undrafted free agents that could be signed at certain levels.
