Major League Baseball players get paid per year. I am not aware at how often their paychecks are disbursed throughout the year, but their contracts, even if they are agreed upon multiple years, are on a yearly basis. So even while they're playing in the pre- and postseason, they're already paid unless they are freshly pulled from the minors.
One of the best ways for us regular people to understand how Baseball players' salaries are handled, you can check out one of the newer Video Games, MLB 10 The Show if you have a PlayStation 2 or 3. It is pretty realistic in Franchise mode with salaries. You get to see what your salary cap is and you must pay your players according to how much you have to spend. It really gives you a great idea of how difficult it can be to make a team with limited funds.
They are paid about 2,000,000
1800
yes
they get paid as much as the players win the game.
Professional softball players are paid less than professional baseball players because softball is not as popular as baseball. Baseball has a much bigger market in the economy, as proven by the baseball stadiums, playing cards, t-shirts, and hats. Because of all the profits that these things generate, they are able to pay their players more. Softball does not have this kind of publicity, and there for the money that flows into the organizations involved in the sport do not draw as much money either. Because they do not draw as much revenue as the baseball organizations, they are not able to pay their players as much as baseball players get paid.
Professional softball players, of course, get paid. However, they do not earn nearly as much money as Major League Baseball players. The Olympic Team that will compete in Beijing this year does get paid, more than the professional softball players, but again, not as much as the average Major League Baseball player. For example, Jennie Finch drives a van, NOT a Ferrari.
Salarys are paid through the bank.
