I’m not sure what year it was, I remember seeing it live. Eventually Stanford won the championship that season

What's funny about our fanbase always shitting on Kramer is that it's the same fanbase that loves Drew Bianco.

Kim doesn’t strike me as the kind of parent that would bankroll a kid past college.

I’m almost 100% certain she would help him be comfortable while he plays baseball as long as he wants. Now once that’s over, time to get a real job cause she’s done paying his bills

He was tweeting and retweeting up a storm of great LSU vibes last week.

Exactly! Worried more about playing with his chains, coloring his hair, and getting special shoes from Momma than playing. Kid was a Total Attention Wh*&$!

Triple A players don’t make decent money. Someone lied to you.

They certainly can. If it’s your first time in AAA, you’ll still be on a small contract but there are lots of avenues to make more:

Here are some ways players can make additional money outside of their AAA salary:

When players are added to the 40-man roster, they get an automatic pay bump up to $46,000 a year.

Players on their second contract get a bump up to $93,000 for being added to the 40-man roster.

Minor league baseball contracts are also negotiable once a player has enough experience with a particular club. For instance, if a player is not good enough to be added to the 40-man roster and the team wants to keep them around, they can agree with the club for a fixed monthly salary.

Minor league baseball pay is very secretive from club to the club after the minimum levels. Teams don’t broadcast their pay structures publicly, and it is very complex once you start digging into it.

Top prospects also receive huge signing bonuses, which help offset the low pay of the minor leagues. Here is the bonus per slot value that each player is assigned to get in the most recent draft.

Triple A Baseball Salaries is 35800 dollars annually. Average salary of AAA baseball player is $502 to $700 weekly in minor-league baseball.

This is what most make. This is what Kramer makes. Not very many are making what you posted. Plus $93k is not living high on the hog.

For a single guy with not much to pay for, 37k isn’t bad at all as a base. Kramer has made the 40 man before btw.
