We will have to wait what they do IRL, I have read several analysts say that it is likely that some college TOP picks may debut this same year in A, something we can do in OOTP.
But it's obvious that the dynamics are different with HS players, as they would debut in May of the following year.
Still in a month we will see how the real MLB organizations will act.

It's not even really that new of an idea. Teams have been holding out players fresh out the draft for years. It's usually been pitchers for the most part. But teams have been limiting innings especially for college pitchers who throw a ton during their season. Plus it's not like the players drafted will just sit around. They will spend time in their team's dev lab once signed until the fall instructionals begin
