He will continue to be paid what his contract states his salary is for that year, after that year there is a league minimum that the player is required to be paid even if he is sent back to the minors.

What does it mean to purchase a players minor league contract?
The term 'purchase a player's minor league contract' comes from the days before the major league teams controlled the minor league teams. Minor league teams used to be independent entities that had no affliation with a major league team. They negotiated their player's contracts and paid their salaries. The players were employees of the minor league team. If a major league team wanted a player from the minors to be on their team they would have to negotiate a purchase price with the minor league team's owner. Today, even though they play in the minors, a minor leaguer is an employee of the major league team. The major league team negotiates the minor leaguer's contract and pays their salary. The minor league team owner pays team expenses. If a major league team wants a minor leaguer in their system to come up to their team, they simply tell the minor league owner that they are going to 'call up' the player. That player will be replaced by another player in the system. So the term 'purchase the contract' is not really accurate in today's game.
How much do minor league player make if they are called up?
Theoretically, a polished amateur player could be drafted, sign a $10 million + signing bonus, then never play well enough to make the majors. I believe that if he is signed to a major league contract (which can be done even if he plays in the minors) that he'd be paid the league minimum of $400kish while in the minors. Also, it is possible for someone like Barry Zito to be assigned to the minors (if he accepted the demotion) and still collect his major league salary.

Do any minor league baseball player make a million dollars per year?
The simplest answer is No. The correct answer is that Major League players get paid during the regular on the 1st and 15th of ever month, with the earnings spread out over the 162 game season. If a player is on a team that makes it to the playoffs, the receive additional money based on how far they go, not on number of games played. After the World Series money is divided up and paid out, players receive nothing again until spring training. No MLB player is paid by MLB year round.
