Another 1.2 million paid to a player who hasn't played in 22 years.

And the Mets will continue to pay until 2035.

Sounds like some of the cluster decisions UT powerheads made here for years.

Don’t the Braves still have Bruce Sutter on one of those lifetime plans? What a bust he was. At least Bonilla got the Mets to the WS once.

According to Wikipedia, he had 4.8 million deferred at 13% interest. That started in 1990 and worked out to be 1.3 million per year for 30 years. Sutter died October 13, 2022.
