  1. They have to pay them but if they don't make the major league team the player most likely isn't going to make $400,000. Probably closer to $100,000 or less depending on how much service they have. Right now it's around a $30,000 minimum if you have never been in the majors and $60,000 if you have. Of course that could be dramatically higher depending on the contract they signed.
  2. I think Bonds and Clemens will definitely get in. Without the performance enhancing drugs they may not be the best players ever which they could claim just based on stats but they are definite hall of famers. Off the top of my head I can think of guys from the steroid era that are highly likely to be elected, many on their first try: Tom Glavine, Greg Maddux, Randy Johnson, Ken Griffey Jr., Frank Thomas, Alex Rodriguez, Derek Jeter, Mariono Rivera, Trevor Hoffman, Jeff Bagwell, Craig Biggio, Pedro Martinez, Mike Piazza, Ivan Rodriguez, Manny Ramirez, Jim Thome and others that I can't think of at the moment. Next year Roberto Alomar, Barry Larkin, Edgar Martinez and Fred McGriff are all eligible to be on the ballot. I'm not sure if you would consider them steroid era players but I wouldn't be surprised to see two of those guys elected next year and all four eventually.
  3. The Polonia incident was the summer of 1989, which was the same year Yount won his second MVP.
  4. I agree with you on the starting pitching. I was around 15 at the time and if I recall correctly Navarro and Eldred were just as highly thought of as Gallardo and Parra, plus they had good seasons in '92 to back it up. Wegman had back to back good seasons in '91 and '92 even though the record didn't necessarily reflect it in '92.
  5. I think your calculation on the interest is quite a bit off. You're assuming a 5% per month rate of return it should be a 5% annual rate of return and that would equate to approximately $1,000,000 in interest if they received 119,000,000 and sat on it for two months.
