The Major League Baseball draft does not get anything close to the publicity that its NFL counterpart gets every year, but don't think for a second that the national pastime's selection process is not just as important than the one that takes place in football or any of the other major sports.
Major League Baseball teams don't get the instant feedback on their selections because the players drafted Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday are not likely to see big-league competition any time soon.
In rare cases, a player might make a contribution in 2018 or2019, while other players may not make their debuts until 2020 or 2021.
