Question about Minor League Umpire Lodging
I was reading through the bargaining agreement that was accepted last year and I ran across something I thought was interesting and I was hoping to get some clarification on as well.
LODGING. During the season the Employer will arrange and pay for lodging costs of employees. Employer will endeavor to make arrangements designed to provide clean, safe and convenient lodging. Each umpire in the Triple A, Double A, and Single A (full season leagues) classifications shall receive his own room. Umpires in other leagues who are lodged two to a room will have two beds. Did it used to be that umpires in all full-season leagues got their own room before the most recent agreement, or is this the first time this is happening? My understanding with all the articles I've read and what I've heard about minor league umpiring is that sharing a room for the entire time a person would be in the minor leagues was just accepted. I was just wondering if this was a new thing and if any umpires have had experiences with it. |
