Bobby Bonilla embraces hype around Mets payment, set to make more than star NFL quarterback
Another Bobby Bonilla pay day has come for the New York Mets.
The team made its $1.19 million payment to the former outfielder on Monday as part of a deferred payment plan which started in 2011. He signed a five-year contract worth about $29 million, but the deferred salary agreement began about 20 years later and will continue until 2035.
