The upgrade is complete, but you've probably noticed the forums are only showing posts up to about April 8. Posts made after that are still in the process of being moved over, and that should take another week or two. Feel free to start a new thread.
The site might feel a little slow while work continues. Engineers are staying on it through the night to get things moving faster again. Thanks for your patience.
The first one is their minimum yearly salaries per level and the second one talks about their additional money that they earn over the off-season and Spring Training. Also, according to MiLB.com, players make a pro-rated portion of their salary for each day while on a post-season roster.
So, figuring for a AAA player...
Base Salary = $35,800 (for approx. 25 weeks)
S.T. Salary = $3,750 ($625/week for approx. 6 weeks)
Off-Season = $5,250 ($250/week for approx. 21 weeks)
Total Money = $44,800
Years ago I remember reading something about how most players make the minimum per level, but the ones with more MiLB Service Time can negotiate more and if they have any amount of MLB Service Time, that raises their negotiating power by a lot. My takeaway is a career minor leaguer like Wes Timmons would make more in AAA than the normal player once he's reached his six years (then seven years) of minor league control. A player like Mike Hessman probably made very good AAA money for having at least a cup of coffee in the majors (and since he was chasing the minor league home run crown).
As for MLB The Show and MiLB salaries, I don't believe that they count against your budget until they're on the 40-Man Roster, right? So, I've never really cared what they make. The CPU continuously under pays players and doesn't have to pay 40-Man Roster players the true league minimum. However, if you're looking for as realistic as possible, then I'd probably look to pay all of my minor leaguers the $60K.

Excellen, Matty. Appreciate you bud. From what I've noticed in MLBTS24 is just about every minor league player with zero service time is paid either $60k or $70k. Thank-you again. Just the kind of confirmation I wanted to hear.
Hurt people hurt people.
Healed people heal people.
Through some sims I've found that while certain players will start out making higher than $60K (by way of draft or free agency), you can offer them $60K the following off-season and most will accept. Those that don't accept it, just make sure that you have a new $60K offer on December 2nd and then offer it again during the renewal phase in February and they will accept that one.
