I heard recently that MLB is goin to have a ceremonial draft this year before the actual amatuer draft.  During this "draft" each team would select a Negro Leagues player to essentially "call  their own".

Has anyone else heard about this?  And if this is actually going to happen, who would the Royals take?  It would almost have to be Buck O'Neil right?

Just thought I would bring this up to see if it were true or I had simply been misinformed.
