wish I could have read it. The Mets are officially tweaking their own noses?

In fairness to Bonilla for getting paid for doing nothing, he just had 1 fewer hit than the Pirates had at Coors Field Tuesday and scored only 2 fewer runs than the Pirates scored in the entire series. So considering the Pirate payroll over that 3 day series, I think Bonilla was probably paid a fair amount for doing nothing.

Just think. If BOB had to pay that contract, would Bonilla still be a starting OF'er with Polanco? He doesn't like to pay anyone for not being on the field.

Hell, he'd probably be outhitting Polanco, come to think of it!

BOB doesn't even want to pay guys until July 16, 2021.
