ProPublica reports that major league teams sign about 450 Dominican prospects each year, most for bonuses around $30,000. Citing MLB data, it says fewer than two-thirds will make it to the lowest minor leagues and less than 10% will play a day in the majors. The outlet also describes handshake deals with players as young as 11 and moneylenders preying on families, and says MLB and the players union have done little about corruption in the industry.
