A lot of people would argue continual one year contracts near minimum wage (700K) is rolling in it relative to ordinary work. Where can a baseball player retire and make 700K?

The problem is for journeymen playing on one year contracts they can end up on a new team every year. If married it’s tough on the wife. If with family it’s tough on the whole family, especially if the kids are school age. it might mean not seeing the family very much from spring training until school is out.
