How come the MLB draft isnt as well publicized as the NBA and NFL drafts?

1. there are way to many rounds

2. in other sports the rookies drafted in the top ten usually play the next year for their teams.

3. in baseball you dont hear about those guys again for an average of four years or so

How come the MLB draft isnt as well publicized as the NBA and NFL drafts?nhl

I think it's because a lot of these guys will never play an inning of major league baseball. In the NFL and the NBA you're being drafted to play for that team, especially the higher round picks are pretty much guaranteed a spot on their professional roster. In baseball these guys are drafted by a team to play in their minor league system. Some of these guys are known for those fans that followcollegebaseball, but then there's also kids coming out of high school that nobody knows a thing about. Not to mention a lot of these guys may not even be with the team that drafted them because of how often players are moved around in trades for big name veterans. I wish it were as big as the NBA and NFL draft, but the fact of the matter is it will never be as big as either of them.

I didnt read through all the replies, so if someone else gave this answer, kudos to them.

I never realized this, but last year while reading a book about baseball, it made a great point that baseball players seem to hit their prime after 25, and usually are not going to be immediate impact players the moment they come out of college.

Plus, the differences in thecollegegame versus the professional game make it somewhat prohibitive for a player to make the immediate jump.

As the comparison was made, you have an impact player incollegeand football, and their games are so similar, you can have an Adrian Peterson come out and make an immediate impact in the NFL or a LeBron James make an immediate impact in the NBA.

But, because of the different fields, different concentrations on teachins incollegebaseball, the aluminum bats, pitchers who dont have the speed or control as the professional level players, there are few players who have ever been successful making the immediate jump fromcollegeto the MLB!
I think that it's because odds are that first-round MLB draft picks are going to go straight to the minor leagues. Very rarely do they make an immediate impact on a major league roster. Typically, it takes them roughly 3-5 years before they make it to the show if they make it at all. In the NBA and NFL both, the drafts from rounds 1-4 will be playing for their respective team that season.
Due to the fact of the caliber of players in the Draft. It is very rare that a MLB Draftee starts the following season and makes an impact like in the other sports. As someone above stated they would spend a few years in the minors prior to being called up. The draft is usuallycollegegrads. So they have to do something aftercollegeball. Most teams have players locked up right out of high school some as young as 13 years old, usually those are the south americans. The MLB Draft is not a big deal when you can sign someone out of high school and put them straight into your farm system when they graduate high school or college. Hope this helps!
I think it's because thecollegebaseball game isn't as hyped. Most of these players don't see MLB action till 3-5 years down the road, and rarely is there an instant stud who gets brought up out of a draft. MLB draft picks make their names down the road so people don't really care to see who gets picked where when it happens, its just something to look at if they ever become successful.
NBA/NFL draftees for the most part have a pretty quick impact. MLB, the player has to go to the minors. And in today's day and age top prospects usually get traded by the time they hit the bigs. They are good pawns for big name players.
baseball isn't as popular as football and basketball. Who really watchescollegebaseball? At least with the NBA and NFL you are watching the athletes incollegeand they become somewhat household names...
1. There are a lot more rounds.

and

2. Most of the players taken are from high school orcollegeand they are less known thancollegebasketball or football players.
Because most of em spend a few years in the minors while NFL and NBA go right to the majors.
Because their is so many rounds!

Mlb.com will be showing all the rounds

and espn2 shows round 1....major league baseball has 50 rounds!
because nobody knows them and almost all spend 3 to 4 years in the minors before making the bigs...if they ever do.
There is no guarantee any of them will ever make the bigs
nobody knows the players...
way too many teams and rounds and players involved
