Frank Thomas is no longer a Blue Jay
The only thing worse then somebody getting paid millions to play a game is someone getting paid millions to not pay a game. The Toronto Blue Jays have come to a “mutual agreement” with slugger Frank Thomas. They will continue paying him the remainder of his $8 million 2008 salary. He just won’t have to come to work any longer. In fact, they don’t want anything to do with him anymore. He has been released and he is now free to look for a job with another team.
Frank Thomas used to be a fantastic baseball player. He was the last player to win back-to-back MVP awards (1993 & 1994). Plus he was in that baseball movie with Tom Selleck. The one where he went to Japan to play baseball.
Derek Jeter’s never been in a Tom Selleck movie. Derek Jeter sucks.
