A fairly large percentage of players in the higher level negro leagues made it to somewhere in “organized ball.” A lot of players who were past their prime went to play in Mexico or in the Provincial League in Canada. It is important that when most people talk about the Negro Leagues they are talking about the Top Level Leagues which were really high level and really only totaled about 200 players as we are talking about 15ish teams who had pretty small rosters. There was not a developed minors Leagues for the Negro Leagues. It compares to the 1910’s in MLB where there were the Majors and then a bunch of other totally independent leagues that varied widely in talent. The players in the Negro “majors” were all very good players who were able to move into some level of Organized ball if they wanted to.
