Achiru Suzuki, CC Sabatia, Billy visit the Wagner Baseball Hall of Fame
USA Today Sports Gabby Lex said how Suzuki, Sabatia and Wagner were selected in the 2025 Baseball Hall of Fame Class.
He was the royal opinion of the late baseball payments, which made his financial decision 26 years ago with an annual salary check that is celebrated every July 1.
He was the Free Agent Stars’ Juan Suto, who signed the richest contract with New York Mattis in baseball history, about seven years before Soto’s birth.
He was a smart talent review when he was a thin outfielder outside Arizona State University, predicted about 40 years ago that Berry Bonds would be on the way to Supestardum, and that Bond Hall Not in the off -fame.
He is Bobby Bonila, the former six -time All -Star and the World Series Champion, who is the Special Assistant to the Major League Baseball Players Association and his players are the spokesperson for the Playmakers with the Classic.
Bonila, Executive Director Tony Clark, and 100 Major League players near the league will be collecting money for youth development programs across the country on February 18, along with other charitable measures. Rice Haskins, the first baseman of Malwaki Brewers, will be honored as the donor of 2024 a year.
“I think people are about to explode,” said Bonila
Bonila, 61, who had a 16 -year career, will certainly be an invaluable source for young players, knowing that Bonila has already tested what she is tolerating in her career.
Where are you going to find a boy who can be related to the stress and internal pressure facing Suto in New York as the highest paid player in the game? Who made a smart financial decision to postpone the money in his deal, with interest that he would pay $ 1.19 million through 2035? Not only and who is not only nurturing young talented players like Bonds in Pittsburg, but does not raise the future Hall of Famrine Albert Poojols in St. Louis?
“I’m going through all of them,” says Bonilla, who retired as a player after the 2001 season.
Bonilla won the World Series Championship with Florida Marilyans in 1997, but still expressed regret how close he was to bring the World Series title in Pittsburg. The pirates lost three consecutive times in the NLC, when twice the Bond and the Bonilla Hall of Fame Manager were the team companions under Jim Lelland. The drought of the pirate World Series is still spread by 1979, and the bonds have never won the World Series ring with pirates or San Francisco Giants.
Bonila said, “The maritime robbers, where we all started, was a special place to play. Able to bring the championship to Pittsburg because they really deserved it … that group of players was so good that I ever played
“We just ran away with a couple of couple during the playoffs and didn’t put a cartoon in it. Trust me, it was really, really good.”
Bonilla and bonds live on the opposition parties in the country, but still remind them of these days. If the time comes so far that the bonds are selected in the Hall of Fame, Bonilla has promised that he will be sitting there in the next row.
Bonila said, “I am expecting it to enter. Just keep the walk (MLB record).
“Just think how many times they didn’t let it play. One thing about baseball is that if they do not want you to kill them, they will put you at the first base, and you will not have to play. If they don’t want you to be killed, you’re not killing. I do not know how they are not taking how often they have not allowed it to play. 8 speaking about the day about living
“So when you really put it all in the context, which part of it are people missing?”
Bonds, whose colleagues insist that he is the largest player he has seen and is the biggest living baseball player, the Baseball Writers Association of America and the modern Baseball Era Committee featured in the Balco scandal. He is punished for surfing. Bonds topped at 66 % of their 10 in 75 % of the voteThird And the last year of the belt.
Although there are several players in the Hall of Fame who are seriously suspected of using performance -enhancing drugs, has never been a player who was caught or acknowledged in using the selected PED in the Hall of Fame. Have gone
Bonds will be likely to be on the ballot of the Aerus Committee once again in November, but there is no indication that emotions have changed and they will suddenly be elected with Roger Clemens and any other colleagues who are affiliated with the PED.
Subsequently, former All -Star with New York Yankees and five -time world series champion, Andy Petete, saw a 27.5 percent increase in his voting share in January.
The addition has indicated that if CC Sabithia was voted on the belt in its first year Hall of Fame, Patetate should follow similar statistics soon. Sabithay, a C-Ying winner, had a record 251-161 record and 3.74 ERA, while the petty was 256-153 with 3.84 ERA.
Still, there is a big difference.
Sabatia played the game clearly.
The petty was the PED as a consumer in the notorious Mitchell report in 2007, and later admitted that he used HGH to control the injured.
So, can anyone possibly justify being the first enrolled PED user to be selected in the Hall of Fame while bonds and Climages are kept out?
Bonds, which is a seven -time MVP, is one of the five great players in history and seven times CY Ying Winner, Clemens, one of the biggest -handed right -handed in the last 50 years. He was accused of using steroids by a former trainer of Balk and Climys, but was not tested positively, he was suspended or sentenced by MLB. Their affairs are quite different from the choice of Alex Rodrig, who were suspended a whole year for the use of PEDs, and Mani Ramirz, who was suspended three times.
Bonila said, “Regardless of how people feel,” Bonila said, “I just don’t know how people keep it out. … I just don’t know to keep this young man out. That will be entitled to enter.
Bonila, of course, was a self -decorated carrier, who was second and third in NLMVP, before Pittsburg recorded his last two years belt with Mattis five years, $ 29 million contract Before signing. It was the richest contract for a player in the North American team’s sports.
Now, the honor goes to Soto, with a 15 -year -old, with a $ 765 million contract he signed in December. Although Bonila’s $ 6.1 million salary was the largest in history in 1992, Soto will earn so much by mid -April.
But when this money sets the generation of wealth for the Soto’s family, there is pressure as well. The World Series is nothing short of a championship, or Mattis’s Several Many titles, cannot justify the deal. Mattis, who had the highest payroll in Baseball in 1992, with the biggest stars of the game, 78-84 went on and with a book published about his season, “The worst The team’s mini can buy “known as”.
Bonila said, “For most parts, I am sure that the players would like to live wherever they want to stay. You get a little somewhere and justify what you are getting.
“The key is to go there just go there. Don’t worry about money. I mean, that’s what the market is tolerating. So just go out and talk to yourself and try not to put any pressure on yourself. This is much easier than working because everyone wants to do it greatly …
“But I think Soto is well grounded. I mean, if you are going to reduce $ 400 million ($ 440 million) from Washington citizens in 2022, and what he did, I think he’ll be fine. Mattis fans and (owner]Steve Cohen) are pleasant. He is going out and does what he does, and it targets a baseball. “
Soto is one of the few high profile free agents who had no money delayed in his contract this winter. The Dodgers have only $ 1.039 billion in delayed contracts on their roster, led by Ohtani, who delayed $ 680 million out of their 10 -year, $ 700 million deal a year ago.
Nevertheless, while Bonilla has made it very happy that he postponed the last $ 9.9 million of his deal with Mattis, he also reminds you that he gets 8 % interest in his postponement. There is no interest in postponement these days.
This is probably the reason why Bonila receives her $ 1.19 million salary on July 1, it is called Bobby Bonila Day, in which the annual check comes up to 72 years of age.
Bonila laughed, “This is bigger than my birthday.
“It has become a great thing.”
Bonila laughed, knowing that many players today have never had the opportunity to watch it, but, oh, they certainly know everyone about Bobby Bonila Day. This is the contract that keeps giving.
“What can I say?” Bonila said. “I was blessed. I am very blessed.”
