I haven't heard about anyone picking him up

I guess he is just cashing checks and living the good life these days.

I remember reading, probably here, that when a player like him is cut, that they receive their entire remaining salary/bonuses in one lump sum.

Bad news: Frankie we don’t need you around here anymore and we’re cutting your ass.

Good news: Here’s a check for $6 million.

Nails would say: That’s a lot of cheddar.

If you take the worst pitching staff in baseball, then add Kris Benson and Jason Jennings, what do you have???

surprise!!! You have the worst pitching staff in baseball, that's what.

I'm stunned no one

has picked him up. You’d think folks would be falling all over themselves for such a great platoon DH/PH.

6,000 large

I hope Adam starts reporting player salaries in “large”.
