…at collecting free money for doing nothing. Hardball Times has a fun look at people who are owed money for doing nothing next season. Very pleased to see no Indians on there.

36 Chambers - The Legendary Journeys: Execution to the max! 
I remember that Bonilla deal with the Mets. He was released after failing miserably with the club and given a 25 year severance package. Then the Braves picked him up and he did pretty well for a pinch hitter and part-time left fielder. Given that the Mets were the Luftwaffe of the NL East at the time, I remember that particularly galling their fans. Good times.
I hate Bonilla for scoring the winning run against Cleveland in Game 7 of the 1997 World Series, but such a hilariously stupid contract makes me like him. A little.
