How much do MLB umpires make?

Answer 1

90-400K per year depending on level.

Answer 2

MLB umpires draw salaries ranging from a minimum of $87,000 to upwards of $250,000 (per the Biz of Baseball website). Minor league umpires, many whom have worked as much as many as 154 MLB games in one season, receive a pro-rata share of the minimum MLB salary. Minor league salaries are monthly, with a maximum of $3,500 per month.

Answer 3

According to mlb.com: "Professional umpires currently begin their Minor League career at $1,800 per month. At the Major League level, salaries range from approximately $84,000 to $300,000 per year."

Answer 4

It's a "unionized" job (the longer your tenure, the more you qualify for as a base salary with performance evaluation pay increases and special game participation - e.g., all-star game, play-offs and World Series - bonuses) and per their last negotiated contract, I believe that a "rookie" umpire makes the same as the lowest paid professional ballplayer on a 40-member MLB contract which is somewhere now in the range for $400-$500K/season. A friend of mine is a 36-year tenured MLB umpire who hired on in 1976 when he then made $30K/season.
