We’ve all been asking for more money for minor leagues. But it turns out we forgot to specify how we want it allocated.
For now, minor league players remain massively, criminally under-compensated, but their facilities are getting the big bucks. At least it’s something.
Over at NBC Sports Bay Area, Alex Pavlovic reports that the San Francisco Giants are investing more than $50 million in a year-round minor league facility in the Phoenix region.
When it’s finished, Papago will give the Giants a year-round facility in Phoenix that will match or exceed what their division rivals have done in the area.
