Not surprisingly, when the Cincinnati Reds make the No. 12 selection in this year’s MLB Draft, it will be done remotely. The draft begins on June 10th.

The MLB Draft will not be the same this year. Most fans already know that the draft has been shortened from 40 to just five rounds, but when the Cincinnati Reds make the No. 12 overall pick, they will do so remotely, as will every other major league team. The draft is slated for June 10th and 11th.
