We’ve added the full results of every June amateur draft since 2005 to our database.
For now, the only change you’ll notice is a couple of lines added to the draftees player pages like this:

Clik here to view.
However, in the future having this info will allow us to add a lot of features that we’ve been interested in doing and been unable to.
The one catch is there is a couple errors in the data based on how we reconciled the draft files with our player database. We linked them by comparing a players last name and birth date, which you would think wouldn’t change, but it does in some rare cases. For example, Dee Gordon was known as Devaris Strange-Gordon when he was drafted and the only way to catch errors like this is doing it manually. If you notice something, please let us know.
As for the currently running 2014 draft, the info will be added to our database sometime after the amateur signing period ends.
