July 1, 20196 yr This makes me laugh every year! Plus it's the Mets which makes it even that much funnier-
July 1, 20196 yr I read somewhere that the reason the Mets did this was because they could invest the money with Bernie Madoff and earn a higher return. Oops

July 1Jul 1 the bobby bo one is the one most in public consciousness but there are several. bruce sutter was paid $1.12MM per year on an interest only loan running at 13% for 30 years. They had the entire principle to pay in 2022, which the braves paid, the year he died. i think bobby bonilla is just more fun to say so it gets top billing.
July 1Jul 1 Just before Bobby Bonilla day ends in 2035, we get to begin a new tradition of Ohtani day in 2034, which will feature the Dodgers paying him 68m each year for 10 years. So we all have that to look forward to. It could start earlier than that if he chooses to retire before 2034, since he will be 39 at that point.
