• Briefly explain why you are interested in studying your topic:  

I am a huge baseball fan and have always been interested in the amount of money baseball players make and if they really should be earning as much money as they do. There are so many professional athletes that get paid an overwhelming amount of cash, but why give the most to baseball players?

• The overall question I plan on answering by the end of the project:

Should these athletes be paid millions of dollars just to simply play baseball?

• Sub questions I will need to answer in order to answer the overall question:

How do the contracts for the players work out?

Do certain position players make more money?(Pitchers, first basemen, ect.)

What kind of money do other athletes make compared to baseball players?

• My plan of research (what specific Library Databases, specific websites, names of authors, people, etc. will I pursue to find the answers to the questions above):

I will look at MLB.com and other websites relating to this one in order to help me answer my overall question.
