Are you ready to find out who joins the San Diego Padres organization? As the love of minor league baseball and thirst for information about prospects continues to grow at a tremendous rate, so has interest in the Major League Baseball draft. The MLB draft isn’t a big media circus like the NFL or NBA draft, for legitimate reasons.
When your favorite NFL team drafts a player, you immediately watch his mini-camp performance. Three months later, that player (along with every other draft pick) is given ample playing time in pre-season. Odds are, a number of those draft picks become starters or key pieces to the team’s regular season successes or failures.
