Minor League Bosses Plot Fooler Clause in Draft Scheme
A new national agreement hints that minor league magnates plan to outwit majors with a two player draft cap and a $79 class A drafting price. The scheme would let class A owners exploit star releases by enlisting a friendly major league manager to draft other players, enabling resale of the star’s release and later return of players, a tactic described as perfectly practicable by insiders.
