[QUOTE="RhoChi, post: 913002, member: 5096"] I always find the whole concept of baseball commits interesting especially since we've seen our fair share not go to college since they were drafted. Maybe as someone who never made the cut for hs sports, I may have a different perspective. But it seems that going in the draft out of HS seems like a risky proposition. The last high school draft pick to be an all-star was Machado drafted in 2010. In the 12 years since, no younger hs players have made the all-star teams. Interesting. It seems to me that college developmental programs are improving at significant rates. Enough so that going to college for 3 years and then going to the draft seems to have been more successful for athletes in baseball in the last decade. Plus, with how much we try to push the limit of our bodies, I'd rather have an injury in college where i can still get a degree rather than in the minor leagues and potentially lose everything.
