Hey Ball Fans, Stop The Insanity

How long will it be until we see the first billion-dollar player? Bleacher Report listed twelve major league baseball players who should get contracts of a hundred million dollars or more during the off-season. Sadly, for Cubs fans, Cody Bellinger is on that list, meaning he won’t be a Cub next year. Last season, there were fourteen $100,000,000 contracts issued. Not one led the major leagues in any positive stat this year. In fact, the Yankees Aaron Judge’s 37 homers tied him for tenth in home runs, the best showing by any of these top fourteen entrants to the hundred-million-dollar club. He’s coming off a new contract paying him $360 million over 9 years. This means the Yanks paid him over a million bucks per homer.
