The June Draft rules seem settled for 2020, unless the owners decide they need more financial security, somehow. The draft will last five rounds, and undrafted free agents are capped at a $20,000 maximum. Gone, at least for this year, is the option of getting a Top 5 round guy at a lesser amount, and tossing $100,000 extra to a challenge addition that remains on the board. (Teams would often go over the soft limit of $100,000 or $125,000 to encourage a junior to sign a pro deal. That option is no longer available.) A list of the top rung of hitters was recently posted by CBS Sportsline.
