Why isn't the draft an issue in baseball?

It was.

The draft order is determined by a lottery system, starting in 2023, where teams that did not make the postseason in the previous year participate in a state-lottery style process to determine the first six picks. The team with the worst record has the best odds of receiving the first pick. Prior to 2023, the draft order was based on the previous season's standings, with the worst team selecting first.

From the 2023 draft, as part of the new collective bargaining agreement (CBA), the general draft order in the first round will be based on a lottery participated by 18 teams which did not make the postseason in the past season to determine the first six picks in the draft, with the three worst clubs having an equal chance of winning the top overall pick.

1 its the most viewers in 15 years.
2 tv/Nielsen ratings aren't counted outside of the US so it was most likely one of the most viewed ever if not the most. Other countries will release their data later on.

You look dumb trying to drag this.

Preciate it

My very limited knowledge was from playing OOTP YEARS ago. I never thought it was an issue in terms of teams tanking to obtain higher lottery chances
