From the Vancouver Canadians website

Vancouver Canadians - Baseball
Minor League Baseball player contracts are handled by the Major League Baseball office. Here are the salary ranges:

First contract season: $850/month maximum. After that, open to negotiation
Alien Salary Rates: Different for aliens on visas--mandated by INS (Immigration)
Triple-A--First year: $2,150/month, after first year no less than $2,150/month
Class AA-First year: $1,500/month, after first year no less than $1,500/month
Class A (full season)--First year: $1,050/month, after first year no less than $1,050/month
Class A (short-season)--First year: $850/month, after first year no less than $850/month
Dominican & Venezuelan Summer Leagues--no lower than $300/month
Meal Money: $20 per day at all levels, while on the road

However, when players are fist signed by a major league club, as Vancouver Canadians players are coming out of the draft, they may receive a signing bonus by the Oakland Athletics. Routinely, the first five or six round draft picks from every team will receive a signing bonus, and this could bring the total team payroll of a team like the Canadians to as much as $10M dollars.

Shane's page says he attended Tesoro HS but graduated from Northwood HS in Irvine in 2005. Isn't that the school with a great baseball program? Maybe Jeana bought him a house in Irvine so he could attend school there. Or maybe he was living in Irvine with Dad.

Booze is cheaper in Irvine.

I believe Jeana did say on S1 that they did buy the Irvine house so Shane could attend the school with the better baseball program and that he and Matt did indeed live there. Probably part of the reason he didn't attend his graduation....he had no real attachment to anyone since he was just there for baseball.

Parents do this kind of thing all the time. Three years ago Kurt Russell bought a Jr B hockey team up in Victoria, BC so his son Wyatt would have a place to play. Then he bought into a Jr A team in Ontario so Wyatt could play there to be seen by a hopefully better college.
Our son went his jr and sr year of HS in another state because of sports. If it is going to get them to college, you do what you have to do.
Too bad Shane did not take advantage of college. Which I am sure he will regret later in life.

He is already playing the "I'm hurt and injured card. Ouch, my back." (to save face in case he gets cut). We all know that he is skinny, little and all talk and no action.

Shane, we want to see ACtion like that 70s song.

If he does, he'll take a seat right along side Billy Beane on 'I Have a Secret' shortly afterward.

I think there's more a chance that Shane will sing in 'Rent' than play major league ball.

It's a shame. Those good looks with such a sour personality.

"Real Housewives" Brat Mixed Up with K-Fed

Not being able to identify "That kid from that reality show about his mom and her friends" is understandable ... but confusing him for K-Fed? Popozowie!

TMZ cameras caught Shane Keough, the hot son of Jeana and baseball player Matt Keough from "Real Housewives of Orange County" last night making out with even less famous girl in the Les Deux parking lot.

Some random approached him and asked if he was Britney's ex-hubby. Now, while most people would take offense, Shane actually embraced it. Douche.

TMZ.com
It's half way down the page, and a video to prove it. Enjoy!
