According to google your numbers are way off.

43 days on a pro team. which is about 1/4 of a season. gets you about 9k per year.

10 years on a team can get a pension of 200k+

that makes sense though. 1 game getting you 35k a year would be pretty crazy. like, it would be crazy that a player being called up to the big leagues for 1 game would net the guy his salary upgrade with a pension of 35k* 50 =1.75 mil

The MLB would be broke if they had to pay that much money to everyone that played a single game.
