mrm, it really depends on the individual. For example, one gentleman who left the game when he realized he wasn't going to get a contract now works college ball in the area. Another I know who was released was turned down by several college assigners and the supervisor for one of the major independent pro leagues. His rationale for saying no to the guy? This super explained that most--but not all--AAA guys who get released tend to have a chip on their shoulders for everything that is baseball. Their attitudes tend to be poorer and more gruff. Those guys who leave on their own tend not to be this way.

Again, this is what I was told by this super. It's also an opinion shared by several college assigners I know. I'm not stating this as some universal fact that is common nationwide. It's just observations based on experience.
