Minor league baseball players may soon lose their minimum wage rights as part of Congress' upcoming vote on a $1.3 trillion spending package.

The "Save America's Pastime Act" was first introduced as a bill in 2016 but did not generate the momentum necessary to become law.

Since then, Major League Baseball has reportedly "paid lobbyists hundreds of thousands of dollars to write a specific exemption into the law," according to the Washington Post's Mike DeBonis.

If the bill ultimately passes, minor league clubs will be able to pay their players as little as $1,100 a month, which works out to $275 a week.

Who cares about minor league players who have no shot at the majors? Any minor league player worth a damn will get paid once they reach the majors or already got paid when they were drafted and/or signed.

MLS minimum salary is $35K. That’s at the MLS level, not a minor league soccer player. A person can make more money being a mailman than being a professional American soccer player. Yikes.

Less money >> less food >> obesity issue solved


It could be a good thing tbh

Yeah, we should be outraged when the NASCAR of athletes are being paid less than guys who wear the same socks work harder and make more.

Whereas whatever Brazil or Argentina considers minor league bukakeball would probably not even get a wage in money, rather paid in chickens, salt and bags of potatoes

Already happened in soccer before:

In before "it's only MLS, not a top-tier league!" in a thread about minor league baseball.
