"The 220 minor league umpires around the country are seeking higher salaries and an increase in meal money. The average salary for Triple-A umpires is $15,000, with a per diem of $25.

"And it's been the same for the last 10 years," said Scott, who worked third base in the umpire crew with Iassogna and Kulpa at the Reds-Nationals game Monday night."

I pray the AMLU umps are awashed in money, but I don't think PBUC had any choice but to hold the bottom line at the bottom. I shouldn't hear much about BAD news from AMLU members. I would expect that GOOD news in the form of PAY RAISES travels fast. Will I read about those details TODAY?
