Hey Project.....2018 Draft Eligible Sophomores

Can you explain to us the rule regarding draft eligible Sophomores? A quick look at the bios of some of our returning players indicates that Watson, Hess, Slaughter & Walker will all be 21 years old at or near the time of next year's draft. Thanks

I think you kind of answered your own question.

Well thats the rule. If you turn 21 before a certain date, you are eligible for the draft.
Baseball goes:
- Eligible for draft out of high school
- if you elect to go to juco, you are eligible after a year
- if you elect to go to a 4 year university you are eligible after 3 seasons, unless you turn 21 before a certain date (dont know the exact date, but I'm sure its not hard to find)

So, if a kid turns 21 within 45 days of the draft, they would be draft eligible as a sophomore.
We won't know the exact date until maybe January (when MLB schedules it), but I can give an estimation based on this years draft:
6/11/2018 seems like the most likely draft date based on previous years so a player would need to turn 21 by 7/28/2018. That means the cutoff birthday is 7/28/1997 (feel old mother frickers).
Any soph with a birthday before that will be draft eligible.
Here is that list:
Nick Bush (Redshirt)
Zachary Hess
Zach Watson
Jake Slaughter
