With the MLB Draft now delayed until the middle of July, the players selected no longer have the option of playing in the Arizona or Florida Complex Leagues once they sign.
Most draftees head to their team's Spring Training sites for workouts and live at-bats in the Arizona/Florida Continuation League or "Bridge League." This is especially true for players drafted out of high school.
While fans may see occasional updates on their prospects from these scrimmages, the statistics from Bridge League games are never recorded.
More often than not, baseball fans must wait until the start of the next season before they can track their favorite team's draft class in affiliated pro ball.
