I googled the phrase "worst contracts in sports." Funny enough, the first article that comes up leads with a picture of Davis.
Looked him up to see if he even played last year, apparently so. Only got 52 at bats and managed 6 hits and 1 RBI. Due to the shortened season he only made $6.29 million. For the next two seasons he will make a base salary of $17 million. After that, he will make a total of $42 million spread out from 2023 to 2037.
I struggled to think of a worse investment. As it turns out, the link above shows he may not even be in the Top 5 current worst deals.
He's sitting at 295 home runs. He's under contract for two more seasons. I wonder if he will get to 300.
