Remember when I said the draft was really important to next year's class and roster? Even more so now.
Looks like the MLB negotiations are looking at reducing the size of the minors and permanently reducing the draft t to 20 rounds. Who knows when the lockout is going to be ended and where the numbers are going to be.
This was reportedly part of MLB's latest proposal in CBA negotiations

If there is a draft this year, even a reduced size one Sabathia will be drafted if he has indicated that he'll sign. Will that happen? Only a few know and they shouldn't be talking! So we get to wait and dream.
