how much do they get paid in AAA, AA, A regualr, A short season and like indepent and **** me and my dad were talking about it and he made it sound like **** because there guys gotta pay for their tobaccy

There's no set answer because there are so many variables. Is a guy in AAA signed to a major league contract? Is that shortstop in Single A a first or second round draft pick, or did he go in the 30th or 40th round? Whose organization does a guy play for? I hate to even guess, but I suppose I'd figure a range of $800 a month for rookie ball to $3,000 a month for AAA. Bu that's only a guess.
