International Bias

I'm in agreement with Drew Smyly on his recent comment about international signings. Why should prospects from Japan, Cuba & other countries get tons more money in signing bonuses than kids born in the US? Answer - because there is no international draft system in place, so players go to the highest bidding team. Example - Yoan Moncada going to the Red Sox for $31.5 million signing bonus. If Moncada were a US prospect, he would max out at $5 million to $6 million. There is an inequality. An all-encompassing draft for players all around the world seems to make sense. Why penalize or reward a player based upon the geography of where he is born? And Smyly was quick to say that he does not blame Moncada, rather he blames a flawed system used by MLB teams. I believe that he has a valid point.
