Rookies of the Year J-Rod, Harris have future of game in good hands

Julio Rodríguez left little question that he was the top rookie in the American League this season. In the National League, however, it was a far more tightly contested race -- between a pair of teammates, no less -- for the 2022 Jackie Robinson Rookie of the Year Award. In

Adley Rutschman also earned a full year of service time for finishing second. He will be eligible for free agency in 2027 rather than 2028.

MLB, MLBPA agree to new CBA; season to start April 7

Major League Baseball and the MLB Players Association reached an agreement on a new collective bargaining agreement on Thursday, paving the way for the 2022 regular season to begin on April 7. After the MLBPA approved the deal by a 26-12 vote, the owners ratified it Thursday night with a

• Clubs promoting top prospects to Opening Day rosters will be eligible to receive Draft picks if the player finishes in the Top 3 in the Rookie of the Year voting or Top 5 in MVP/Cy Young voting.

Now this seems to be saying that the pick can be earned if the player receives MVP/Cy Young votes any time before they gain arbitration rights and not just for the rookie season, but it seems that Seattle would be awarded the pick this year under either reading.

Draft rule changes with new CBA

So, it seems that Strider could have been #1 on every prospect list and it would not have mattered. Apparently the "top 3 finish" detail was contingent on an international draft. No agreement was reached on that issue so the draft pick compensation for ROY was restricted to the winners of the awards.

This is also an interesting detail

· The player cannot enter their rookie season as a foreign professional and the player cannot be signed to a Major League contract covering more than one playing season prior to making their Major League debut. Essentially, this means a player must debut before signing an extension. In the past, this would disqualify players like Luis Robert, Evan White, and Eloy Jimenez.
