I found this article today. Pretty interesting how Baseball continues to skirt labor law and exploit young men with a dream.

It was very enlightening. I didn't realize how bad it was for the low minor leaguers. I found it interesting that a couple of the players didn't want to join in with the class action suit, saying that they knew what they were getting into and that they were grateful for the opportunity.

 

MLB should take some of the money from the top, and distribute it to the lower levels.

That would be a start. Paying at least minimum wage would be good too.
