Red face Met Motor Madness

When asked: What is the craziest incentive or contract clause you’ve ever been asked for?

Met GM Steve Phillips said:

"When one of our players a few years ago–I’m not going to say who–was going to break an all-time record, he wanted a Madden Mobile. He was negotiating the gift from the club."

Who could this have been?

Yeah, but, the only all-time record he was near was 'most teeth around your neck.'
