I have an idea, 2nd Year Major-Leaguer, you don't get to decide how much money you make. Wait until your 6 years of service time are up and become a free agent, kid--that's how it works. If you're really good and healthy (and maybe you are), the BALLCLUB gets to decide if they want to extend you an offer to lock you up during your arb years. Keep pitching, avoid your arm falling off and wait for that pay-day. Don't go chirping away about how much money you want to make, it's bad karma. Out.
