A’s become first team to stop paying minor leaguers. Paychecks are halted after May 31. https://t.co/wrL66zP8rU

Just some rough math. Say there are 200 players in a minor league system. Paying each $400/week for July, July and August is $5,200 per player. To pay every minor leaguer would have cost the Oakland A's a hair over $1 million.

Owner John Fisher is worth an estimated $2 billion.
If owners refuse to pay their minor leaguers, those players should have the option to declare themselves free agents.

Davey Johnson surpasses Gil Hodges
as the winningest manager in Mets history with his 340th win, a 4-3 triumph
over the Giants at Candlestick Park. The New York skipper, who has averaged
98 victories during his first three seasons, will compile a 595-417 record
(.588) during his six-plus years with the team.

A sign bearing the likeness of
Mike Piazza connecting for his decisive eighth-inning home run in the Mets'
3-2 victory against Atlanta in the first professional sports event in New
York City following the terrorist attacks of 9/11 proves to be the winning
entry in the Mets' revival of Banner Day, a team tradition started in 1963
that lasted until 1996. The artwork, created by cousins Olivia Nuzzo and
Stephanie Giangrande, included a section of the NYC's former skyline, with
the WTC towers silhouetted above Piazza's heroic homer in mid-swing above the
words, "The home run that helped heal N.Y. God Bless America. Let's Go
Mets."

Altherr still strikes out too much against inferior competition.
Higher paid players should get squeezed, but not that much.
Pay, or release, the minor leaguers. Do they get unemployment if released?
You forgot a Happy Birthday to... Colby Smith. :)
