Happy Bobby Bonilla Day!

[Ranched]

The 57-year old made more this morning than Patrick Mahomes did all last season, and Bonilla hasn’t played a game since 2001.

Like every player on the New York Mets, Bobby Bonilla receives a large paycheck every July for their services on the diamond. Only difference here? Bobby Bonilla doesn’t play for the Mets and hasn’t given them his services in decades.

Every July 1, the Mets pay a 55-year-old retired player of theirs a whopping $1,193,248 due to the more infamously, arguably greatest sports contract ever negotiated.

Bobby was a decent player. Never really lived up to the contract when joining the Mets and at the end of the contract will have taken them for tens of millions of dollars well into retirement.

I love Bobby Bonilla day.
