in 1914, the newly formed federal league disrupted major league contract stability by luring away established stars from the al and nl with inflated salaries. to retain collins, athletics manager connie mack offered his second baseman the longest guaranteed contract (five years) that had ever been offered to a player. collins declined, and after the 1914 season mack sold collins to the white sox for $50,000, the highest price ever paid for a player up to that point and the first of only three times that a reigning mvp was sold or traded (the others being alex rodriguez in 2003 and giancarlo stanton in 2017, both to the new york yankees). the sox paid collins $15,000 for 1915, making him the third highest paid player in the league, behind ty cobb and tris speaker.
