Reply to "Where do players stay when drafted"

I can only speak for my son's experience in the Gulf Coast Rookie League (Short Season). Out of high school, he was required to stay at the team dormatories. Each room can house up to 4 players. (Stacked bunk beds) The cost for housing and meals are taken out of their $850/month pay. My son "netted" every two weeks about $70.
Life for a young player is not easy from an economic standpoint. Many 18-19 year olds do not have access to cars, etc. I would suspect that many players receive regular "care packages" from family to get by.
