Selig will get the title commissioner emeritus and will be compensated in future years for his service and advice to Manfred and the league. MLB is not revealing the number of years Selig will serve in the role.

MLB spokesman Pat Courtney told ESPN that the league will not reveal compensation but said that $6 million a year is inaccurate.

Courtney added that the compensation and role for Selig is immediate and doesn't have to be approved by the clubs.

Selig will retire on January 25th.
