They are getting close. Remember however, next year MLB is going to a lottery system. Having the worst record doesn't automatically give a team the first back. It just increases the

odds

They could have the worst record and still pick as low as 7th with the new draft lottery in 2023. The first 6 picks are determined by a lottery involving the 18 non-playoff teams. After that, it reverts to worst W-L records. The lottery is weighted toward the worst records of those 18 teams with the worst 3 teams having equals chances and then decreasing odds for each of the next 15 teams. But anyone can get lucky in the lottery so it's possible--although unlikely--that none of the worst 6 teams would pick 1-6 and as a result the worst 6 teams could end picking 7-12.
