Shoeless Joe Jackson

1917–18 seasons, Jackson signed a contract for $6,000 per year.

1919 season, his base pay was about $5,250 (due to a shortened 140-game schedule at $1,000/month) plus a bonus of $750, which brought his total up to approximately $6,000 for that season.

1920 season, Jackson signed a three-year contract that paid $8,000 per year.

$6,000 in 1918

$6,000 in 1919
