$937,142.84 per homer?

Georgie isn't the only authoritative figure to cut a path to Jason's door. Far more sinister reports are emerging that the hobbling Giambi has the MLB commish on his back, too. His admission of doing "that stuff" seems to have rattled MLB's cage but this time the sleeping commissioner finally seems to be waking up to the smell the dung.

Furthermore, it seems the Yankee organization has its own army of lawyers trying to determine a way to weasle out of paying the drug-addled cripple his full contract. It seems that doing "that stuff" might be a contractual violation after all.

Be as it may, if Giambi's .272 batting average isn't exactly living up to expectations. He's due to earn $23,428,571 this season and at his current pace will hit some 25 homers. That works out to $937,142.84 per homer. Will Georgie step in to save Giambi's blushes or will he get thrown under the team bus? $1m smackaroos is the type of chump change you spend on a chump.

Rumor is that all these theatrics have George ready to explode. The Yankees are 9.5 games behind the first place Boston Red Sox. $1,000,000 a homer is petty cash when you're Georgie and have lots of "that stuff" (read, $) but when "that stuff" runs out, you can bet back-stabbing Giambi's steriod-ravaged ego will deflate like a 10 day old circus balloon.
