That's what I've been wondering about. They system is the system, and all these guys knew what they were getting into when they signed up. What makes them think it will suddenly change radically to pay them thousands of dollars more to chase the big league dream? If anyone is going to get paid I think that money would go to the players who the fans pay to see.
