Kimbrel, et al, took an assignment to Gwinnett. They have major league salaries of 1.5 to 2,000,000. My question is how much do they get paid while they’re in Gwinnett? Also, can you pay a minor league player anything you want? So that if you had Alex Verdugo and you wanted him for depth, could you pay him 1.5 million to stay in Gwinnett just in case? With that affect your luxury tax. How does that work?

Verdugo Is on a major league deal and gets that money no matter what. Kimbrel and McCann are in split deals and that's their major league salary, while they'll get a few hundred thousand in the minors as vested veterans.
