Taiwan Baseball Salary
I would like to know what's the average salary for a baseball player in Taiwan? And is there a maximum?

The average salary is probably around $60,000 US. The maximum salary is $96,000 US, and that's only given to stars or foreign players. However, a lot of incentives are put in. The money is still better than the average person in Taiwan, but baseball is about having fun and being competitive.

There are a lot of youngsters who make it as Chinese singers and good ones make $10 million US every year. I would rather be a singer - all the money to go along with the Ferrari (worth $1.2 million US in China) and the pretty girls.

This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.

It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.
