We are a little more than halfway through the baseball season. We can hope the Twins make it to the playoffs AND that they don't have to face the Yankees.
Nowadays major league baseball players make a lot of money. The minimum salary is $720,000 in 2023; players like Byron Buxton and Carlos Correa make much, much more.
But baseball players are just people; and like all people they can, and sometimes do, get into financial difficulty.
The following well-known players have filed bankruptcy:
Tony Gwynn (Padres), chapter 7, 1987
Lenny Dykstra (Mets and Phillies), chapter 11, 2009
Jack Clark (Giants, Cardinals, others), chapter 7, 2018
Gaylord Perry (Giants, seven other teams), chapter 7, 1986
Graig Nettles (Yankees, Twins, four other teams), chapter 11, 1988,
Rollie Fingers (As, Padres, Brewers), chapter 7, 1989
Jose Canseco (As, six other teams), chapter 7, 2012.
I hope you're not in financial trouble. But if you are, just like the baseball players listed above, bankruptcy may help you through a tough spot.. Feel free to call me at 320-252-4473.
