I don't think baseball needs more than 11.7 scholarships because it isn't a revenue sport for most schools. In the SEC, who actually makes money on baseball? LSU, Arky, Ole Miss, MSU, USCe. That's it, right?
But if they were able to give more scholarships, they could keep more of the talent from going pro earlier increasing the level of play and profitability.

I would love for baseball to get some more scholarships. Would be surprised if it happens though.

Meh. I don't think lack of scholarship is the reason many guys go pro.
The main reason is for the immediate money and immediate start on their career.
you could be playing in the bigs at age 20-21 if you sign out of high school. You go to college, age 21-22 is when you're just starting the minor leagues and needing about 2 years at least before getting called up. (with the exception of some stud pitchers in college)
