A widely-used American slang adjective meaning second-rate, unimpressive, or not ready for serious competition — borrowed from the world of baseball, where minor league teams are the developmental level below the major leagues. Calling something or someone minor-league is a dismissive verdict: it means they haven't made it, they're playing at a lower level, or their effort simply isn't up to scratch. The term extends effortlessly beyond sports into business, relationships, creative work, and everyday trash talk.
Of relatively minor importance.
(US) Of or pertaining to a minor league.
Major league (significant, important).
