10-22,

 

Each year, each each team drafts 40 players and signs most of them, plus they sign about half as many from Latin America.  That's your numerator.

 

TPM's info tells you how many MiLB slots there are.  That's your denominator.

 

Each new player coming into the system who finds a roster spot forces another player out of the system. which means the annual turnover rate is probably somewhere around 40%.

 

The math is relentless against these guys.
