Does anyone else find it sick that a player making far and away more than any other major leaguer, with more than $20 million in salary earned in 2002 gets a bonus for not winning the MVP??
For $20 mil a year, I think you you take it for granted you're getting one of the top 5 guys in the game. No bonuses should really be needed anymore.
