The 2023 First Year Player draft will begin at 11/1 at 9am ET.
The draft will last 10 rounds, but teams are not required to participate in all rounds.
- A team has 12 hours to make their first round pick and 8 hours for all successive picks. Each team must make their selection within the allotted time.
- A team must have a roster spot available. The player selected will be assigned to a minor league spot. If there is not an available spot in the minors, the player selected will be placed on the MLB roster.
