ST. LOUIS — The deferred compensation agreement included in Darryl Strawberry’s 1985-90 contact with the Mets has been auctioned for $1.3 million by the Internal Revenue Service.

The buyer, only identified as a man, was among 31 bidders during the sale Tuesday in Fairview Heights, Illinois, according to Michael Devine (http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xhgflh_michael-devine-irs_news)of the IRS’s St. Louis office. The buyer chose to remain anonymous, Devine said Wednesday.

The minimum bid was $550,000. ESPN, which first reported the results, said the buyer will get a monthly check from the Mets (http://www.bigstory.ap.org/article/2d8198015424441aab30e4fcef2cb5d2/darryl-strawberrys-contract-fetches-13m-tax-auction)for $8,891.82 over the next 18-plus years.

Chief U.S. District Judge M. Casey Rodgers (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Catharine_Rodgers)in Pensacola, Florida, ordered the sale last September to satisfy tax liens for Strawberry's federal tax debts for 1989, 1990, 2003 and 2004. That judge still must approve the sale.

The nerve of the federal reserve bank.

1.3 mil for a 1.9+ mil payout 18 years coming.....that doesn't seem like a good "investment"
