Does anyone know how minor league baseball contracts work?
I'd like to know, when someone gets drafted into the farm system of a Major League Baseball team, how it works.
How long can those contracts last? How much is the league minimum (for Single A, Double A and Triple A teams)?
And mostly... I wonder how it works, if you make it to the big leagues (i.e. MLB), is there a contract extension?
I seem to remember that when you start playing for a Major League Team, you owe them 6 or 7 years of your carreer at league minimum salary... (like Pujols, being payed for a long time by the Cardinals for less than 400,000$ a year)...
But I might be wrong...
If anyone can answer... I'd love to hear what they have to say.
Thanks
Minor league contracts last only 1 guaranteed year. First year contract are:
A- $1,100 per month
AA- $1, 500 per month
AAA- $2.100 per month.
Every player at every level is also given $20 per day on the road for meal money.
If a player remains in the same league for a second season, he is awarded a small $100-300 per month raise.
Teams control the rights of their drafted players for 6 years.
A player with less than 6 years of major league service time who is not signed to a multi-year contract is defined as a "protected player". If a player has less than 3 full years of service (One year of service time is defined as 172 days on the active 25 man roster, or the 15-60 DL) he'll earn at least the MLB minimum of $327 000 , or $54.400 if he has spent at least 1 day of service or 2 years on the 40 man roster. Alot of prospects have split contracts which will pay them different salaries in the minors and the majors.
After 3 years of service, or if a player is ruled a "super-two", the player can file for salary arbitration.
