Reply to "AAA Player Posts His Pay Stub"

To me the big issue is MiLB pay has not kept up with inflation over the years. The pay would be adequate had a COLA been incorporated.

84% of American MLBers come from the top ten rounds of the draft. Round ten slot money is about 150K (not interested in hearing about the exceptions). Yes, some is lost to taxes. But the signing bonus for those expected to have a shot at making it should be sufficient.

The rest of minor leaguers are there to be long shots and teammates of the top prospects in the meantime. Enter at your own risk. Only another 10% of American players come from rounds 11-20.
