Baseball players proposed expanding eligibility for the amateur draft rather than decreasing it, maintaining 20 rounds of selections and moving it back to June in another proposal indicating the sport is heading to a labor confrontation this offseason. During a two-hour bargaining session Tuesday at the Major League Baseball's headquarters, the union proposed allowing college sophomores to be eligible for the draft along with those finishing their junior years, who are eligible for the draft under the current rules along with high school seniors. MLB said last month it wanted to eliminate eligibility for high school seniors and junior college players, arguing college programs offer better preparation for professional careers.
