Media exposure Major League Baseball draft

-






the first-year player draft has historically had far less media exposure counterparts in other leagues 3 primary reasons:



high school , college baseball, primary sources of mlb draftees, not popular college football, college basketball, and, in canada , parts of u.s., college , junior hockey. consequently, prospective top draft picks unknown casual sports observer @ time of draft. however, changing: ncaa baseball has enjoyed spike in popularity in 2000s , top collegiate baseball players have enjoyed greater media exposure, though still far below of basketball , football counterparts.
unlike top draft picks in nhl, nba, , nfl, of whom expected make immediate impacts, top mlb draftees assigned minor leagues several years hone skills, @ low levels (rookie or class a) initially. due this, fans cannot see newly drafted players perform immediately, causing them forget or lose interest in them. entire 2007 first round (64 players) totaled 1 inning of major league playing time of end of 2008 season; of 2009 season, vast majority of 2008 first-rounders still assigned minor league organizations. in contrast, every first-round pick in 2008 nfl draft had played in league end of 2008 season.
while many nhl, nba, , nfl draftees reach respective leagues, vast majority of players selected in first-year player draft never play in single mlb game, including many first-rounders. example, 31 of 52 first-round draft picks in 1997 draft made big-league appearance, , 13 of 31 appeared in more 100 games of 2009. in 1997 s sixth round, 5 of 30 players selected made big league appearance, , 2 of 5 (tim hudson , matt wise) played more 40 innings in majors. further illustrating unpredictability of draft s middle , later rounds, none of 30 players selected in 18th round ever reached major leagues, 19th round produced all-star , world series mvp, david eckstein.

the 2007 draft televised live first time in draft s history on june 7, 2007. draft coverage took place @ disney s wide world of sports complex @ walt disney world near orlando, florida. since 2009 draft, first round of draft broadcast on mlb network live , in prime time studios in secaucus, new jersey.


beginning in 2018 under changes mlb scheduling practices, teams have off day on day of draft.
