Price giving $1,000 to minor leaguers
LOS ANGELES — Minor league players in the Los Angeles Dodgers organization will be getting something extra in their paychecks courtesy of star pitcher David Price.
He will give $1,000 each to 220 minor leaguers as a goodwill gesture, a team spokesman said Saturday.
They will continue to receive $400 a week from the team at least through June.
The 34-year-old left-hander is on a $217 million, seven-year contract that runs through 2021.
