Guess those baseball players that traveled to TX participating in this week’s College Summer Baseball Invitational and playing for nothing are total daredevils. Same for all the college baseball players participating in Summer baseball leagues.
How about all of those risky PGA golfers and caddies traveling en masse from Texas to SC to CT to Michigan to Ohio over the next month. More than half of those guys won’t get paid a dime as only the top 70 get a paycheck each week.
You didn’t really address or refute anything I said.
But since you brought up the CSBI those players were all attempting to get one last showcase in before the draft this week. Just about everyone on that field yesterday was auditioning for one of those 20k UDFA contracts (maybe one top 5 rounder in there). Certainly not playing for nothing, in their minds. And another example of ownership going cheap and hurting future players and the game itself, in an effort to save money. If you prefer to not focus on the greed, then focus on the harm it is doing to the overall game. None of that was caused by MLB players.
