They also complain about the draft and other MLB rules, but thats probably going to be covered by the antitrust exemption. They might have something on the pay, though. It doesn't matter if you sign a contract or not, you generally can not pay someone less than minimum wage even if they agree to it.

What a bunch of babies. They're getting paid to play a game they've loved since they were kids, whom any of us would gladly quit our jobs in a heart-beat for a chance to play pro baseball. Have a problem with the money? Get better!
