If the name is getting upgraded/changed from BULLPEN to ARM BARN. Then as a former reliever I think it would be appreciated if the ‘PENS were upgraded as well to fit more amenities for its occupants.. @DimTillard

“The problem is the payday for 90 plus percent of these players never actually comes.”

Thanks to @dougglanville for sharing his Minor League story and advocating for change.

Ahead of the Field of Dreams game, @JDScholten explains why MLB’s antitrust exemption must go.

“Minor-league life might seem pretty romantic, but the reality is bleak: poor housing, lack of quality food, low salaries, and required training with no pay.”

If MLB leadership can’t do better than this, it’s time for new leadership.

After decades of silence, Minor Leaguers are finally coming together and speaking out. Their first area of concern: a housing crisis that is pushing players to the brink.

Catcher’s balk. File this under random baseball trivia. One base for non-thrown balls. Two bases for thrown balls after touched with non-eligible equipment.

@JeffPassan Don’t worry Jeff, these guys “get” to chase their dreams and go into debt. Only some, myself included, can float themselves through pro ball with their signing bonus. I’ve seen so many talented players move on because they simply were tired of going into debt. System is broken.

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

Yesterday, in his last game in High-A, Rockies prospect Michael Toglia hit a grand slam. And it made one woman very happy. It was grand slam weekend in Spokane, and Toglia’s hit won her $10,000.

Which is the exact amount a Class A ballplayer makes in an entire season of work.

[MiLB Players @Milb_players]

This is a real message we received from a Minor League player. We get messages like this all the time.

It’s time for every MLB team to cover Minor League housing.

@Brett_Phillips8 I love you hahaha

Next MLB memo to players:

If any player takes off their belt at anytime while on field of play not due to equipment malfunction will be subject to fines from the league…

Congrats dude!

How does a minor league team convince Gold Glove outfielder @JeffFrancoeur that one of his teammates is deaf...FOR AN ENTIRE MONTH!?

The great @Decker6 tells us why it was the easiest prank he's ever pulled off 🤣

So going to back up the catcher a little bit late does have its advantages..

[MLB Pipeline @MLBPipeline]

Not the best idea to try and run on Jesús Sánchez.

The Marlins prospect's arm is one of his best tools: https://t.co/r629BJDAzM
