One major difference between America and Japan in baseball is that we have a minor league system. In Japan there is no minor league that i am aware of.
The KHL in Russia can often outbid NHL teams for hockey talent, since they have a very different cap structure than the NHL and no (or at least much lower) taxes on their salaries. Hockey players tend to choose the NHL, though, because it's better competition, in general.
I guess it just comes down to the mentality of these young baseball players and what they want out of their careers. I do, however, think incorporating them into the draft could make the MLB more competitive in their monetary offers than the system they'll be using later this summer.
