Today was pay day for the players. One guy approaching arbitration-eligibility for the first time was heard to remark, “This is the smallest paycheck I’m going to get until I’m a 40-year-old retread.” Line of the day.

The line isn’t right, though. It’s the smallest check he’ll get until he’s playing in the independent league. Even as a minor league signing at age 40, he’ll likely get more than the minimum salary from 15 years before.
