Mets Still Paying Cy Young Winner Who Last Pitched for Team in 1995

The New York Mets continue to make payments to Bret Saberhagen, a two-time Cy Young Award winner, even though he last pitched for the team in 1995. Saberhagen's tenure with the Mets was marred by injuries and controversy, preventing him from fulfilling the expectations set when he joined the team.

Despite not having played for the Mets in nearly three decades, financial obligations from his playing days persist. The ongoing payments highlight long-standing contracts and financial commitments that can extend well beyond a player's active career.
