    The Boston Red Sox Tuesday, April 21, 2020 * The Boston Globe Red Sox will pay full-time employees through May Peter Abraham The Red Sox informed full-time employees Monday that their salaries are guaranteed through at least May 31. The decision was made after Major League Baseball informed teams that commissioner Rob Manfred will suspend uniform employee contracts as of May 1. That gives teams the option to furlough baseball operations employees or cut their salaries because of the COVID-19 pandemic. That includes major- and minor-league managers, coaches, scouts, trainers, and other staff members, about 9,000 in people in all across baseball. “Our clubs rely heavily on revenue from tickets/concessions, broadcasting/media, licensing, and sponsorships to pay salaries,” Manfred wrote in an e-mail to teams, a copy of which was obtained by the Associated Press. “In the absence of games, these revenue streams will be lost or substantially reduced, and clubs will not have sufficient funds to meet their financial obligations.” The Red Sox have declined that option for at least the next six weeks. Based on the team’s 2020 media guide, the Sox have approximately 400 full-time employees, including baseball operations. Various outlets have reported that the Astros, Blue Jays, Braves, Brewers, Cardinals, Cubs, Diamondbacks, Giants, Mariners, Marlins, Phillies, Reds, Rockies, Royals, Tigers, Twins, and White Sox also will continue to pay at least their baseball operations employees. Most of the others are expected to make that commitment in the coming days. Some small-market teams could resort to cost-cutting measures as baseball, like so many other businesses, deals with a lack of revenue due to the game being shut down.
