Baseball implemented a new lottery to help low payroll and small market teams. 12 teams would get picks from 6 after the first round and 6 after the second round. The Padres will get one of the picks after the second round.
Competitive balance lottery
One of the interesting things about the picks is they can be traded, once. So the Pirates, Reds, and Cardinals who are battling for the NL Central title can all trade their, after the first round picks, to supplement their cause. Except these, MLB Draft picks can not be traded.
