The brilliant folks over at Timothy McSweeney's Internet Tendency have dug up some interesting clauses in the new contracts handed out to free agents this winter.
I think Royce Clayton's might be my favorite one:
If he finishes the season with a batting average above .220, the Blue Jays pay him an extra $1 million. Finishing between .221 and .230 gets Royce a handicapped sticker on his car and the key to every bathroom in the city. If he does the impossible and hits above .231, Royce gets to choose any three people, players or citizens, to get beaned by B.J. Ryan fastballs.
