The 2020 MLB Draft is moving from Secaucus, New Jersey, to Omaha, Nebraska, and will be held from June 10-12, according to Kendall Rogers of D1Baseball.com.

The reported change in date removes any conflict between the draft and the NCAA playoffs, according to Rogers, as next year's College World Series starts June 13 in Omaha. The moves could also help with prospect attendance for the draft.

The 2019 draft took place from June 3-5. Last year's NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament started May 31, while the 2019 College World Series began June 15.
