The 2023 Major League Baseball draft took place on July 9–11, 2023, in Seattle. The draft assigned amateur baseball players to MLB teams. For the first time, a draft lottery was used to set a portion of the draft order. The first six selections were set via the lottery, with picks belonging to the remaining lottery participants set in reverse order of regular season winning percentage. To complete the first round, playoff teams selected in an order that combined postseason finish, revenue sharing status, and reverse order of winning percentage. Reverse order of regular season winning percentage and postseason finish was used to set the draft order for rounds two through 20. In addition, compensation picks were distributed for players who did not sign from the 2022 MLB Draft.[1][2]
The Pittsburgh Pirates won the inaugural MLB Draft Lottery, and selected Paul Skenes with the first pick in the draft. The first round picks of the New York Mets and Los Angeles Dodgers were moved down 10 slots as a result of those teams exceeding the first luxury tax threshold by $40 million or more.[3][4] The Seattle Mariners were awarded the first Prospect Promotion Incentive Pick, the 29th overall pick, after Julio Rodríguez won the 2022 American League Rookie of the Year Award.[5]
The first and second rounds of the draft were held at Lumen Field, a football and soccer stadium adjacent to T-Mobile Park, where the 2023 All-Star Game took place.[6]
Nolan Schanuel made his MLB debut on August 18, 2023, making him the first player from the 2023 draft to make his major league debut. Schanuel became the first player to debut in the major leagues in the same year of his draft since Garrett Crochet in 2020.
