An MLB spokesman declined comment. The key section of the memo sent to teams Monday and obtained by ESPN reads: "It has come to our attention that Clubs have been encouraging amateur players in t he United States to withdraw from, or otherwise refrain from playing, high schoo l baseball in the United States and/or Canada, in order to try to establish resi dency in a foreign country, in an effort to make themselves eligible to sign und er the International Amateur Talent System instead of the Rule 4 Draft." A recent example of a legal version of this maneuver was made by shortstop Luciu s Fox in 2015. He was a native of the Bahamas who had moved to Florida to play h igh school baseball and was regarded as a fringe first-round prospect after his junior year of high school. Fox moved back to the Bahamas and was declared a fre e agent by the league in April 2015, eventually signing for $6 million with the San Francisco Giants in July 2015. 大聯盟最近對各隊發出警告，要求球隊不準去遊說球員 藉由離開美國高中+回去母國 讓他們是透過國際業餘球員，而不是選秀進MLB -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 223.140.141.247 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/MLB/M.1715126628.A.AAF.html
