$5 mil to play A ball? Nice thing he did but I didn’t think anyone got that for A ball. Those guys only make about $1500 a month.

Number 7 pick in the draft. Unless he gets hurt he shouldn’t be in A ball very long.

My nephew made it as high as AAA ball in the Nationals organization. First three years were guaranteed at $125K per (had to also play winter ball). He was resigned for two more years at $150K. This was twelve years ago.

He never made it to the bigs, but did well while trying to.

Yeah, they only get around $1500 per month in salary, but there are much higher limits on signing bonuses. Obviously, some scouts and people in the front office figure he has the potential to move up to MLB in a very short time.

The young man was wise to show his generosity now rather than wait. He will be blessed because he has blessed others and shown gratitude.

That's what I was thinking. I thought they made almost nothing until (or if) they reached the major leagues.
