That answer is yet to be determined but this is how the MLB calculates payouts:

The MLB pools 60% of the gate receipts from the first four games of the World Series, the ALCS, NLCS and the first three games of the four Division series. That amount is split and distributed as follows:

  • World Series Winning Team: 36%
  • World Series Losing Team: 24%
  • League Championship Series Losers: 12% each
  • Division Series Losers: 3% each
  • Non-Wild Card Second Place Teams: 1% each

In 2008, each Philadelphia Phillies player was paid $351,504.48 for winning the World Series and each Tampa Bay Rays player pocketed $223,390.05. In 2003, the share each player from the Florida Marlins received for winning the World Series was $306,149. The record payout for a winner was back in 2006 when the St. Louis Cardinals took the trophy and $362,173. To put that in perspective, in 1903 the winner's share was a mere $1,182.

On top of all that, their championship rings are valued anywhere between $20,000 and $40,000. World Series MVPs also win a car.
