Yeah, and that ranges from less than $1000/month to a whopping $2150/month. It's a great life of poverty, but hey, they're playing baseball!

So, what is your point? College baseball players don't get full rides. They still have to come up with money themselves to fund what their scholarships (usually about a 50% ride for the better players in the SEC) don't cover. It's a decision each individual has to weigh depending on his own particular situation. You can't make a blanket statement that covers everybody.

No, minor league money isn't great. It's pretty much enough to pay basic living expenses. It is, however, the shot to make it to the big leagues and have a chance to earn big money.

Like I said, some people just don't have a clue what they are talking about.
