MLB pitcher signs deal to make over 98,000 dollars a day the next nine years

My kid is good at baseball but he’s afraid of getting hit by the ball ,there goes my millions

when's he going to get his first pay check?

all that money will last about o seconds in hell

That's barely enough to buy a fully loaded Cyber Truck from Elon.

In all seriousness, the joke is on him when hyperinflation begins to set in.

better him than the owners.

Who are you to assume he's going to hell?

But he wasn't good enough to play for my Pirates apparently according to management. Fuck Bob Nutting's ass straight to hell.

Well he is throwing a ball after all

Capitalism....throw ball...4K/hr 24/7. Teach school...20/hr 40 hrs a week.

What a shit show this world is.

That isn't "capitalism" you fucktard.
It's

MLB needs a salary cap this is fucking nonsense

And ima baseball fan lol

He DOESN'T make $4000 per hour...

He makes $4106.77 per hour.

I make more than him...gawd

$$$$$$$

It's good to be Gerrit Cole.

I didn't believe you, so I ran the numbers through a calculator, and sure enough....shit!

I divided by 9 (9 years)
I divided by 12 (12 months per year)
I divided by 4 (4 weeks per month)
I divided by 7 (7 days in a week)
I divided by 24 (hours in a day)

Holy Shit.....just over $4,000 an hour, 24 hours a day, every week, every month, every year, FOR 9 YEARS!

To do what?
Throw a ball?
Well for that much money, he better strike some batters out!

Our kid got a scholarship to Marshall in West Virginia playing ball in the 90’s, nothing close to 98,000 bucks a day, how stupid!!
No human should get that much money for doing anything!

Its easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to get to heaven.

Hope a good part is guaranteed because pitchers are notorious for getting injured due ot the stress of throwing a baseball.

Money laundering and embezzlement. These man children are putting in work under the table to pull those figures. Drugs, hit men, who knows - all good professional athletes are criminals in disguise. Then they float out their golden boys like Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez to take the attention away from all of the criminals in their ranks - and it works every time. You do not accidentally shoot David Ortiz in the back over a case of mistaken identity. How stupid do these sports networks think we are? Remember Aaron Hernandez?

As a pitcher he'll only play 1 out of every 5 games. Or about 35 games a year.

He is going to make over 1 million dollars PER GAME!


Hell of a risk signing a pitcher to a long term deal like that. I would have loved to see the Dodgers get him but for that kind of money I'm glad he's going elsewhere.

How come the looney left doesnt complain about celebrities earning obscene amounts of money ????? Shouldnt we also tax the filthy rich celebrities ?

Guy throwing a ball at a guy with a bat = $4000/hr

Guy in a lab trying to figure out how to stop cancer = $40/hr




This is what is wrong with the world.

How can they afford to pay that much? Probably 25 other players on the payroll also.

How much is a damn ticket to watch a ball game now? $500? $1000?

Cole is good.

The Yankees spend money like they know it ain’t backed by shit no more.

He’s not that good.
