by Bob Timmermann

The Arizona Diamondbacks and retired pitcher Jason Grimsley reached a settlement over what to do with the balance of his unpaid salary for this season: $504,000.

ESPN.com's Mike Fish reports

According to [Grimsley's agent Joe] Bick, the approximate $225,500 that Grimsley would have lost during the 50-day suspension will be given to Drug-Free Arizona and the Arizona Diamondbacks Foundation. The remaining $278,500 is earmarked for Garth Brooks' Teammates for Kids Foundation and Grimsley's church, Christ Community Church in Leawood, Kan.

Grimsley retired after admitting to Federal agents that he had use human growth hormone during his career. Grimsley has not been formally charged with any crimes however.

So Grimsley gets around $200k in tax savings for the charitable donation.
