Damn, Wendy’s social media team brought the heat.
Someone in that department is still pissed and/or lost a bet on the Rays WS.
The problem is people seem to forget that Blake Snell turns into a noodle arm at 80 pitches. Kinda damned if you do and damned if you don't. Snell being angry about it is hilarious.
I have seen something saying ... between the state and the feds ... that 340 is gonna look at lot more like 140 after the tax man comethPeople make such a big deal out of that contract. It was just smart money on both sides but in dollar amounts that make it seem crazy to most people. Media, true to form, sensationalizes it at every opportunity.
The Mets deferred his payments for 11(!) freaking years. In return Bobby Bonilla got a 25 year annuity for $1.19MM per year with a guaranteed 8% annual return.
Given the context MLB team revenues, $1.19MM is chump change and every year out into the future you go with it, the value drops (time value of money) even more. They were given 35 years to pay a guy back money they owed him.
On his side, it's a a damn nice pension with a cost of living allowance built in that actually mimics the real rate of inflation. Also worked for him that he could afford to wait those 11 years for it because he was rolling so well in his playing days.
Good deal all around imo.

maybe he’s counting on getting traded to Florida or Texas a couple of years into the deal?He just helped the CA state deficit, no doubt
Worst state in the union to get a 340MM contract in (maybe NY, who knows).
