Major League Baseball feels like it almost doesn’t exist at the moment. The owners and the players are still butting heads over how a potential season will happen. This year has been the first to not have professional baseball in America in April and May since the 19th century.
Luckily for baseball fans, the annual first-year player draft is coming up on Wednesday. Granted, it’s much shorter than usual. In this weird year, we live in, there will be only 5 rounds.
The Phillies find themselves with the 15th pick in the draft. They’ll most likely take a hitter, but a local standout could change that.
