I am not exactly sure what the average yearly in salary. You have to remember that they, as well as their families, get to fly on first class private airplanes with the team, stay in the best 5-star hotels with the team, and are alotted the same meal money per day while on the road, which is $200. So they make $16,200 a year in meal money alone. This answer is really way off. Most organizations don't allow the family to travel on there charters, but some do. The plane is NOT 1st class but rather a regular plane that you would take on a commercial flight. You do have access to the stewards at your becon call and you will have both upgraded food and drinks and all that you want. Meal money just a few years ago was $70 per day but that could have changed but I doubt to $200 per day. Most real good organizations will pay a bullpen catcher somewhere around $40,000 to $50,000 per season and will also throw in minor league insurance which help a lot. If the team is in the top 3 in there division then the team will get so many shares to distribute to not only the players and some of the coaches but to assistant trainers, grounds crew and anyone else that has helped throughout the year. A bullpen catcher may get anywhere from a fixed amount of $10,000 all the way up to a full share if the players that have been active the whole year vote it in. A full share could be anywhere around $400,000 if they win the World Series. Lastly, the pitchers that use the bullpen catcher usually will give him a tip at the end of the season which could be anywhere from $100 all the way up to $100,000. Hope this helps.
Bullpen catchers who work for Major League Baseball make less than three figures a year. The average salary of a bullpen catcher is usually around $60,000 per year. Some make only $20,000 per year. Bullpen catchers also receive about $89/day for meal money, like the players.

A bullpen is one the side of the fence where a pitcher can normally warm up to pitch.
Pitchers can do their initial warm-ups anywhere, usually some light throwing to warm up their arms in the outfield area. Then they can move into the bullpen where there is a mound and a catcher where the height of the mound and distance to the catcher are identical to the mound and catcher on the playing field. Starting pitchers may use the bullpen for their warm-ups during pre-game ceremonies on the field, then move onto the mound on the field immediately prior to the start of the game, and relief pitchers will use the bullpen prior to going into the game.
Sort of. Row 3 is next to the Rangers Bullpen. You will have to turn your head to the left to watch the bullpen. The bullpen will not be in your line of sight if you are watching the batter. Section 50 is a little off. Part of the section (first 10 rows or so) are in front of section 51 and beside the Rangers bullpen while the rest of the section (rows 11-25?) are behind the bullpen and between sections 49 and 51. Depending on what seat you have, you may have a really good view from behind the catcher looking into the bullpen from row 3.
