Read full article: Wait continues for hundreds of undrafted baseball players

In a photo provided by MLB Photos, the baseball draft board is seen Monday, June 8, 2020 in Secaucus, N.J., for Wednesday's draft.

So, the prospect of not having anywhere to play in the pros anytime soon could alter some undrafted players' plans. I do see college baseball getting into a little bit of a logjam over the next probably 18 months, Hunter said.
