A month ago, a deal was reached between Major League Baseball and the MLB Players Association concerning the first-year player draft and what it will look like as the novel coronavirus continues to disrupt normalcy across the globe.
While we do know the draft will consist of a minimum of five rounds, with the ability to expand, fans remain unsure of when the draft will take place. The originally scheduled date, June 10, is one likelihood. It could also happen as late as July 20, per a piece from J.J. Cooper at Baseball America.
No matter the case, it will happen.
