Wait, so the vast majority of minor league players have zero chance of ever reaching the big leagues? Hmmm, seems like we as do gooders, or if not us, at least those great people that call themselves the NCAA should be doing something about this. Shouldn't every kid with an ounce of talent be forced to play at least one season of college baseball? I mean the kid wouldn't have to enroll until January, but he should have to enroll and play one season of college baseball, before signing a MLB contract. Personally this would make me feel so much better. Knowing a kid is being protected from the perils of the real world for one semester, before being cast into the do or die world of professional sports will make me sleep better nightly and may even stop me from choosing to become a meth dealer in the rural town I grew up in.
