∙ 10y agoThe average MLB salary is rounded to $2,000,000, but is just under that. The largest salary in the MLB (2012) is Alex Rodriguez's $29,000,000, according to baseballplayersalaries.com.
As of 2012, the average salary for MLB is actually almost $3.5 million. Not just under $2 million.
The average salary for the other major professionals sports is:
NBA - between $5.5 and 6 million
NHL - a little over $2.3 million.
NFL - about $1.1 million.
Even though the NFL is the most popular sport in the country, their average salary is much lower than the others. This is due to the much large roster size, and short (just 16 games) regular season. Also, since the average career of an NFL player is shorter, many more players are making close to the league minimum of about $200,000
