So what happens when players go undrafted are they free to sign anywhere?

Yes but i think it is only people from college

Yep. They become undrafted free agents. Darren O’day, John Axford and Matt Shoemaker were originally signed as undrafted free agents.

I hope the rangers can find some good amateur pitching

Gotta love a team that can use tons of excess money to go after top-prospects out of the country. There should be a harsher penalty for those teams. I think baseball would be better with a cap. My own personal opinion, it would level the playing field a lot more.

There is a cap for signing International amateurs and there are harsh penalties for going over that cap…

MLBPA will never allow a full and actual salary cap….that was one of the causes of the last strike.
