  • The Demise of the African American Baseball Player
    LCB_18_2_Art_4_Standen (Do Not Delete) 8/26/2014 6:33 AM THE DEMISE OF THE AFRICAN AMERICAN BASEBALL PLAYER by Jeffrey Standen* Recently alarms were raised in the sports world over the revelation that baseball player agent Scott Boras and other American investors were providing large loans to young baseball players in the Dominican Republic. Although this practice does not violate any restrictions imposed by Major League Baseball or the MLB Players Association, many commentators have termed this funding practice of dubious ethical merit and at bottom exploitative. Yet it is difficult to distinguish exploitation from empowerment. Refusing to lend money to young Dominican players reduces the money invested in athletes. The rules of baseball and the requirements of amateurism preclude similar loans to American-born baseball players. Young ballplayers unlucky enough to be born in the United States cannot borrow their training expenses against their future earning potential. The same limitations apply in similar forms to athletes in other sports, yet baseball presents some unique problems. Success at the professional level in baseball involves a great deal of skill, attention to detail, and supervised training over a long period of time. Players from impoverished financial backgrounds, including predominately the African American baseball player, have been priced out of the game. American athletes in sports that, like baseball, require a significant commitment of money over time have not been able to fund their apprenticeships through self-generated lending markets. One notable example of self-generated funding is in the sport of golf. To fund their career goals, American golfers raise money through a combination of debt and equity financing.

Sports fans want you. Chicago needs you — especially on the North Side. Only six weeks remain till spring training and the Cubs still lack a closer and a front-line starter to fill out their pitching rotation.

    The Boston Red Sox Friday, April 17, 2020 * The Boston Globe Are baseball players facing further salary reductions? Alex Speier Baseball players know they won’t be receiving their full salaries in 2020. An agreement governing the financial relationship between MLB and the Players Association, reached in late March, stipulated that salaries would be adjusted to reflect the percentage of the regular season that was played — with the possibility there would be no games in 2020 due to the shutdown forced by the COVID-19 pandemic. But even if there is a season, could further player salary reductions follow? The possibility was introduced by New York’s Governor, Andrew Cuomo, who in an interview with CNN relayed that Mets COO Jeff Wilpon had suggested that owners might see further salary concessions by players if a season is played in empty ballparks. “Apparently, Major League Baseball would have to make a deal with the players because if you have no one in the stands then the numbers are going to change, right?” Cuomo said. “The economics are going to change.” A major league source said that owners had not broached the topic of potential salary reductions with the MLB Players Association, A major league source said owners had not broached the topic with the Players Association, but the possibility is unsurprisingly being disputed. MLB believes the agreement was premised on the possibility of games taking place in stadiums with fans, and believes the document codifying the agreement is clear on the point. The MLBPA, however, feels the sides already reached an understanding about the financial rules that would govern a season.
