Reliving Rangers: if the Mets have Bobby Bonilla Day; the Rangers have Bobby Holik Day

Happy Bobby Holik Day NYR fans (FTHN Edit)

Our Reliving Rangers offseason series continues with a DOOZY!

Today is July 1st, and Bobby Bonilla is trending on social media. That’s because when the New York Mets washed their hands of Bonilla the player, they also cemented his contract as one of the worst in sports history. Bonilla, who retired in 2001 gets an annual $1.19M check from the NY Mets today and will do so until 2035.

The contract is so ludicrous that even Ryan Reynolds is trolling the Mets in EPIC fashion with a new MintMobile commercial featuring Bonilla himself.
