Who pays MLB players when they get injured?

Answer 1

Major League Baseball players get paid during an injury depending on the terms of their individual contracts. Most daily players will continue to draw their normal salary. However, their are some players who might be demoted to the minors or cut.

Answer 2

Professional players often have a rather complex contract with number of games played or even minutes on field, and penalties, and goals, and all sorts of stuff figured in; injury is also written into the contract so: Yes they get paid even when injured or on the bench.

Answer 3

That is negotiated as part of the deal. Sometimes the original team, sometimes, the second team, sometimes they split it.
