Description: Fresh look at the reality of life in the minor leagues, told by an insider who had unique access working for the team and who is a major character in the story. Minor leagues are a recurring and relevant sports story because of the players having to work for below poverty wages pursuing a dream that 95% won't get close to fulfilling. For Clubbie , author will employ the same marketing ideas he saw used to launch multiple New York Times bestsellers at the media company he used to ghostwrite for--including The Last Black Unicorn by Tiffany Haddish and Can't Hurt Me by David Goggins, as well as several Wall Street Journal bestsellers--and customize that strategy for Clubbie . Clubbie is a behind-the-scenes peek into the baseball world--not from the top in the majors, but from the bottom rung. With multiple legal battles waging over minor league salaries (including a class action case against MLB and the commissioner's office), recent changes from the Toronto Blue Jays to increase pay for their minor leaguers, and the larger context of income inequality in America at large, Clubbie underscores a growing tension in America. Baseball will unwittingly find itself at the center of the discussion, as both a long-standing symbol of America, and as a stark example of the contrasts between classes in our country.
