2021-2022 Mariners offseason/free agency thread

[ulmax]

but if we took pitts ball team from them...i guess...they would feel the same...as i do about the sonics...
so..i dont know about that....i dont like it of..coarse...but i would take them..of coarse as well.....

but if they had to they could put the AAA team in pitt..and get out of market...tv for the pirates..or the AAA team..here in portland..and get out of market pirates..here...sounds good to me lololol...cuz what we have now..is nothing..

a share..that way sounds good like tampa and new orleans...yep...

 

[ulmax]

the portland area is big prob from longview(wash..south)..to astoria(oregon coast..vacation spots)..to salem..to the dalles..and vancouver...is all..really portland area...for baseball...anyway...and other sports...like its in market...if ya want to put it that way...

while the beavers are in corvalis...and the ducks in eugene..(both south of salem..even if corvalis is abit east as well).does not leave any real sports...for portland...except u of portland..
they are only ok....for a gonzaga size school....and they could use more support....yep..yes sir...

 

[ulmax]

(oops corvalis is a bit west of salem and south..yeah...ok ok...).....potland area could support a major league team..
but i think football...would do better....for now...with more interest....a..AAA..team..to start with...would be good..
if even just to promote the sport....in a big area......
so portland pirates.AAA..with majors on tv....sounds good.........lololol...make pittsburgh a sister city...and were good...lololol

and with cinnci and clevland already close...pittsburgh..may not grow much...portland..is still..growing..a lot...

and although..im seahawks..and mariners fan.i..live here...and not really going to spend...400..just to go there to a game..
will i if i do..go there...sure..maybe...just depends..ya know..what i would be doing there..prob seeing family..yeah..prob .lololo

Portland had a triple a team . Was not supported . City council basically said move we want soccer.

 

[ulmax]

pittsburgh pa..2019..302 thousand2021.....299,718..so it is falling..
portland oregon..2019..645,291.....thousand.662,549....portland is2 times as big as pitsburgh...no wonder...

i will never watch..or play..soccor....i am old though....i also..see no need...to be like anyone else..on the planet..
except americans......
and i have been all ..over..to some parts of the world..
there no place...like home....

the pacific northwest...for me..

 

[ulmax]

yeah..pittsburgh..verses...MLb..and portland...ok pitsburgh..winns...why...portland is dumb....

cuz they twice as big as pitt ,pa...

 

[ulmax]

but its ok/....they will take baseball.in clackamus..or one of the other countys..and portland will have to do without...
.if portland does not want it...want to know...why...yep..
and beaverton and hillbough..will take all they can get....and portland will die....a sorry death..

 

[ulmax]

yeah..but i do know its hard to sell...people what they do not ..want....and you may be right..that in multnoma..it may
not sell...but in tualatin ..or wilsonville..it would...

 

[Tapey]

I dont know if I would be in minority here, but I would love a Carlos Correa signing.

 

[ulmax]
