The 2017 Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB) Draft was held on October 26, 2017, for the 53rd time at the Grand Prince Hotel Takanawa to assign amateur baseball players to the NPB. It was arranged with the special cooperation of Taisho Pharmaceutical Co. with official naming rights.[1] The draft was officially called "The Professional Baseball Draft Meeting supported by Lipovitan D". 2017 marked the 5th consecutive year in which Taisho Pharmaceuticals had sponsored the event.[1]

Summary

[edit]

Only the first round picks were allowed to be contested with all picks from the second round onward being based on table placing in the 2017 NPB season in a waiver system. Waiver priority was based on inter-league results. As the Pacific League teams came out on top against Central League opposition, Pacific League teams were given preference. From the third round the order was reversed continuing in the same fashion until all picks were exhausted.[2]

Apart from the selection of Katsuki Azuma by the Yokohama DeNA Baystars, all other picks in the first round went on to be contested being the most this had occurred since 2008.

87 new players were drafted with a further 28 development players selected.[3]
