Players injured during the World Baseball Classic will have their salaries
paid by the WBC organization while they are unable to play for their major
league teams, according to an MLB source.
That would mean that players such as Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira and
Dodgers shortstop Hanley Ramirez will be paid by the WBC during their
respective absences.
Teixeira, who makes $22.5 million this season, is expected to miss 8-10 weeks
with a partially torn tendon sheath in his right wrist. He was injured while
taking batting practice with Team USA before the start of its tournament play.
Ramirez, who makes $15.5 million this season, is expected to miss eight weeks
with a torn ligament in his right thumb. Ramirez was injured during last
Tuesday's WBC title game while playing for the champion Dominican Republic.
據ESPN的Buster Olney的消息指出說若有大聯盟球員因為參加WBC受傷
那麼該球員因傷缺陣期間的薪水將會由WBC官方來支付
意即Teixeira或是小亨利這些在WBC期間受傷的球員在缺席期間的薪水將會由WBC來支付
