Major League Baseball's proposal to have the 2020 amateur draft held from the commissioner's office has been rejected by the MLB Players Association, according to Ken Rosenthal and Evan Drellich of The Athletic.
The league proposed for the draft to have 10 rounds, per The Athletic which is five more than the league's rules require. It included other restrictions to which the players objected.
In the proposal, the league would have the draft split into two five-round portions, according to The Athletic. The slot values for picks in the first five rounds would be equal to what they were in 2019.
