Today I learned:

Quote:
From 1992 to 1994, Bonilla was the highest-paid player in the league, earning more than $6 million per year. Since 2011, Bonilla has been paid approximately $1.19 million by the New York Mets each year. The 25 payments come every July 1, which some fans refer to "Bobby Bonilla Day". This was part of a deal made when the Mets released Bonilla before the 2000 season while still owing him $5.9 million for the final year of his contract. The deal expires in 2035, at which point Bonilla will have been paid $29.8 million for a season in which he did not even play for the Mets.

Translation:

Bobby Bonilla hasn't played for the Mets since 1999, and will receive almost $30,000,000 for a single season, that he never even played.

Base-uh-bowl has been beddy beddy good to him.
