What’s $1.4 Million Between Friends?

The Marlins are upset they are paying tons of money to Dan Jennings (source, The Miami Herald):

The Marlins owe Dan Jennings the difference between his new salary and the $1.5 million they would have paid him this season if he hadn’t been fired. And the Marlins are fuming, and filed a grievance, because they’ve been told Washington is paying Jennings only $100,000 as a special assistant to general manager Mike Rizzo, which they believe is well below a salary commensurate with his responsibilities.

I don’t know, front office salaries below GM are pretty low, since the jobs are scarce and highly desirable. We also live in a country where people are still allowed to negotiate salaries. I’m sure Jennings was very happy to take the bulk of his pay from Miami and help out his new team.
