    This is why it pays to have a smart agent.

    Someone better tell Manny to check the glove boxes of his cars to see if there are any stray $2 million checks.

    My favorite Rickey Henderson story is that he used to reward his kids for bringing home good report cards by letting them draw one of his unopened per diem envelopes. If you managed to select the one for a nine-game opposite coast swing, jackpot.

    Always thought more than a few players would have been wise to get that kind of deal. After they've blown most of their earnings, had it stolen by their money people or lost in divorce or bad business decisions - Surprise! More money for you!

    At least the current Mets have learned from this and taken a more measured financial approach. Oh, wait...

    A decade from today it will be Shohei Ohtani Day. And Bonilla will still have one more year to go.

    Do they still give out per diem envelopes in this day and age of debit cards?
