Minor leaguers are players with 150 or less career major league at-bats or 50.0 or less career innings pitched before the start of the season.
A player defined above as a minor leaguer may remain on your minor league roster the entire year even if he exceeds the above limits (150/50) during the season.
If a minor leaguer is promoted to the major league roster during the season, he is given a salary of $300,000, which counts against your $100M CAP, but his years do not count against the 100 year CAP.
A minor leaguer promoted to the major league roster, may be demoted back to your minor league roster. His salary of $300,000 will, however, continue to count against your CAP for that year only. If recalled, he assumes the $300,000 salary he was assigned earlier in the year.
When a minor leaguer exceeds the above limits (150/50), he becomes a major leaguer the following year. Before the following season, the owner may waive him with no penalty, trade him, use a waiver pass or keep him for his major league roster. No longer a minor leaguer, whether kept or traded, his salary will be $300,000 and his remaining years will count against the 100 year CAP of whichever team he is on. If waiver passed his salary of $300,000 will count against the CAP. As long as he sits in the minors, his years will not count.
Minor leaguers do not receive a monetary salary as long as they remain on your minor league roster.
