Clauses in MiLB contracts... | High School Baseball Web

Is there anything in MiLB contracts that forbids the use of motorcycles?

I have been wading through mine and am finding no mention of anything of the sort. Of course, that document is possibly the hardest thing that I have ever tried to comprehend.

I don't know if this issue is covered differently by different teams or what not.

Thanks for your help.

I don't think there is anything specific in the standard Milb contract about motorcycles.
If you read very closely, and then have a lawyer read it very closely, and then have another lawyer read it very, very carefully, you will find that if you have any accident on a motorcyle and are injured, unless your money is guaranteed, you will not be paid, probably be placed on the restricted as opposed to the disabled list, not be eligible for health insurance, and not have access to medical coverage.
The Milb contract does not vary by team. Provisions can vary by where you are drafted and the leverage of your draft position.
But, if you ride a motorcycle and are injured, most players will find the results I described.

Haha, I know...it's just something that I have been wanting to do for the longest time.

Things only get better when you wait for them though!
