RE: Foreign Baseball Leagues Offer Struggling American Players the Chance to Turn Their Careers Around

in #baseball7 years ago (edited)

Could start becoming more and more popular for American players in the near future. The new bill that was proposed that will keep wages below minimum wage for MiLB players is a disgrace. I could see some of those guys jumping over towards a foreign team looking for higher wages and potentially a different platform to showcase their skills. My brother-in-law currently plays in the Orioles organization and is really struggling to make ends meet on the measly $1000 a month he is provided with.

Sort:  

Minor leaguers make almost nothing. It is shameful. Good luck to your brother in law!
