Scott Boras doesn't agree with the agreement reached between Major League Baseball and the players' union to possibly shorten the draft and limit the financial pool for amateur players.

Under terms of the agreement, Rob Manfred has the discretion to shorten the 2020 draft from 40 rounds to as few as five rounds, according to sources.

"For owners to do this to these young men, who are so passionate about baseball, is something that they need to examine their conscience," Boras said. "More kids will have to go to [college]. And anyone not taken among the top 200 players will have to go back to school."

Players drafted in 2020 will get only $100,000 of their bonus this year. The remaining amount will be split into payments made in July 2021 and July 2022, according to sources.

"I'm a big proponent of college, so I want these kids to get their education, but what really bothers me is that kids outside the fifth round deserve their bonuses," Boras added. "And now they're freezing their [bonuses] for the next two years, and are paying them late."
