因為Elly De La Cruz在小聯盟的時候與BLA公司簽約,同意上大聯盟的時候將10%的薪水給B
LA,同時BLA當時提供他貸款供他吃穿。
BLA是一間會貸款給小聯盟球員的公
司,並且跟該球員談條件,如果該球員上大聯盟,未來生涯的薪水抽一定比例的薪資給BLA
。
這個商業模式蠻有趣的耶
不過也顯示小聯盟球員薪水真的很慘
我記得Eric Sim 分享過 他2012跟巨人簽約的時候
1A 2A每個月(有打球的時候) 才給1000鎂
沒打球的時候就放生你 如果你連1A都沒有 在camp等機會 只有每天的伙食金20鎂
Reds top prospect Elly de la Cruz will pay 10% of his career salary earnings due
to an agreement he signed with Big League Advantage (BLA), a company that loans
money to athletes in exchange of a percentage of his salary earnings if he reac
hes a major league in their sport.
Low bonuses and minor league salaries push young players to this agreements.
