Mets Still Paying Bobby Bonilla $1.2 Million Per Year

Posted Jul 1, 2015
July 1 means many things in Major League Baseball, such as the beginning of the fourth month of the season -- so we can stop with "it's still early" talk for good. One of those things is Bobby Bonilla pay day. Yes, July 1 is when Bobby Bonilla -- who retired in 2001 -- annually gets a check from the New York Mets for $1,193,248.20, just as he does every year and will continue to do so through 2035.
