Nope. He played early, but debuted about one year after he was drafted. In this era, about the only players you will see play the year they are drafted are elite reliever prospects, like Wagner. |

I think some juco players may have to wait a year before signing, (there are some weird draft eligibility rules that I don't understand) but otherwise draftees can sign and play either major or minor league baseball right away.

Haha okay, okay. But your f'ing Dodgers beat my Tigers. BASTARD! Did you go to any of those games, fyi? I heard the Dodgers fans gave Gibson a great ovation. That's awesome to hear. |

Mike Morgan famously debuted in the Major Leagues days after graduating high school and being drafted by the Oakland A's. After warming up, Gene Tenace approached the mound and started to go over the signs. Morgan spoke up: "Uh, I only throw fastballs."
Not surprisingly, he was in the minors after 3 very bad starts. |
