The gap between the haves and the have-nots has expanded in the MLS.
The MLS players' union published its salary list. Obviously, L.A. Galaxy import David Beckham is the main money man, and salaries have increased an average of USD 129,395 thanks in part to his contract, but 46 players earn the league minimum of USD 33,000.
Thirty developmental players are checking in at USD 17,000, while another 43 make USD 12,900.
Five players are making more than USD 1 million, Beckham included. Claudio Reyna is the only U.S. national earning more than a million. Landon Donovan is just shy at USD 900,000.
