What are all the signing dates for college baseball?

Since colleges want to see how you do throughout your entire high school baseball career, most high school baseball players sign with colleges during their senior year or at the end of your junior year. The college will most likely send out a scout to watch and evaluate the players game and see if they have the skill and talent to play at the next level. For whatever reason if you get hurt or decide not to play baseball anymore, the college will let you know that they are done seeking you as a player for their team and you can still decide on what college you want to go to before its too late. I personally recommend waiting to sign later in high school so that you can be sure that playing college baseball is exactly what you want to do. If you don't want to work hard and bust your butt then don't bother trying to sign with a college. It's a lot different then high school baseball. Coaches don't take as much messing around and are there to win an NCAA championship.

Hope this works out for you. Good luck!

What are minor league baseball general manager salaries?

The salaries of independent baseball general manager vary depending on several factors. Here are just some of those factors:

  • Was the team profitable last year
  • The GM's experience
  • Stability of the league
  • Average amount of sponsorships he/she can bring to the team
  • His/her ability to manage a staff
  • Ability to sign and keep quality players
  • Relationship with the community leaders

In addition, a GM's compensation may be based on any of the following:

  • Fixed salary
  • Percentage of any sponsorships brought into the team
  • A possible "override" on the sponsorships brought into the team by staff members (this is not always the case)
  • Profit-sharing bonus (this is not always the case)
  • Any equity in the team owned by the GM (not usually the case)

Also, if a GM has certain abilities that do not require outsourcing then these are advantages which make him/her more marketable. Such skills could include:

  • Lowering insurance costs
  • Website maintenance
  • Stadium lease negotiations
  • Legal/contractual skill
  • Accounting/Bookkeeping
  • Logo design
  • Merchandise production

This is one of the reasons why independent baseball general managers' salaries vary even within the same league.

The average salary for an independent league general manager is about $55,000.

How long does it take a baseball player to get from first base to second basse?

It depends on the player, and if he is coming from a dead start from first, or rounding first after hitting the ball. On average, it takes a player a little over 4 seconds (4.2-4.6) to get from first to second from a dead start. If rounding first from home (for instance, he just hit a double) it would be slightly quicker since he has a running start. Maybe right around 4 seconds. Very quick players can make it from a dead start in 3.8-3.9 seconds.
