To me Tanking makes no sense in baseball.

In other sports where someone straight out of college can make an impact it sort of makes sense if the team thinks the player available would be a special talent.
(And that's not guaranteed even for a top 10 pick, but it's more likely than in baseball.)

How many players in baseball get drafted and make the team right away with no time in the minors? I'm sure there are some, but very few.

So to me tanking in baseball is more an example of panicky clueless ownership/management than anything else.
