No the point..is not cumbiya..
Soccor .trophyies

 

[ulmax]

No profit. is your dream.not mine

 

[ulmax]

Your Profit.does.not get one fan..to the ball park.

No .not one....they don't care about it

Odds for Ohtani per NYPost

9. Mariners: They tried hard back when he was a bargain six years ago. He does have connections there (a trainer) but might be steep for their 54 percent solution. Odds: 30-1.

More contenders join $500 million Shohei Ohtani sweepstakes

This is the free agent to end all free agents.

Per Sportscenter:

This will be the first time in SEVEN years that the World Series will not feature either the Los Angeles Dodgers or the Houston Astros

 

[ulmax]

Yeah.mariners..do not. Need..to spend.all.
That.much..witch..is amazing...
50mil..is well..enough..and under .the .
Mlb.ave..
As I have said .not one fan..cares about.
Stanton's profits....
And when..they .don't get the right.people.
To win...
Your profits will..go down .
Cuz..entertainment..value .will be.down..
As.long. as. stanton
Keeps.it down...he will start..losing.(profits).from lack. of interest..
Looking .like..Tampa tropacana..
In the bad days...

Jerry should not.be fired..
Givin..the.opertunity...he would build..a winner...
As he has built .a minors...
Only .Stanton..holding him back..

Shooting.yourself..in the foot..
Is not.that big a draw...these days..

Good luck..with that foot wound

 

[ulmax]

Cuz .your players .will be begging.to.
Be traded ..next ..a fat..bad stain.on reputation..

That will never be fixed
You will be forced.to.sell..
From.bad..reputation...dragging down..
Profits

Mr Stanton

 

[ulmax]

Unless ...you change that..I suppose .
As Colby .has suggested ...
But we will see ...

Personally .I've.seen sense the start of the.
Mariners .lose and lose again...
Except..once...
And those players did not last long either..
And there..the only .guys to.be heros..
For mariners..
And now..you are trying .to stop..
A ws....
Bad..rep..kills..

 

[ulmax]

As the baseball..turns...
Reputation..burns..

A franchise...learns....(only.maybe..)

We will .see.in the next chapter..of..
Flying the..texas flag.over...the space..needle.

As..They rip .the Houston.flag down...

 

[ulmax]

Hitting..them .in the

Wallet ..works ..

One way..or the other ..

In this case. .it could work..for continued..
Profits as well.....
If they let ....it..

That .is what...we need .to find out..this.
Off Season....
What...will..it be .Mr .Stanton..

 

[ulmax]

At the ..verry.least...a re-eveluation..
Would seem to be in.order...
At least....

[ulmax]

Add..a catcher..

Canzone .

And.mariners at..
100mil...
Then.
140mil..at the end..

A drop.in the bucket..

 

[ulmax]

Catcher..for me..
Market value..3.mil..spotrac..
Porta rican..catcher.milwalkee..

Free agents .

Carantini....3mil
Sanchez .sandiego..10.mil.market.vaue.2.1 war.
Yasmani grandal..pass .18mil..I'm looking for a backup..

 

[ulmax]

Tom Murphy ops plus..142.is good..but.in.
Free agency...Yankees will.get.him..prob..
From my..and..he is just..hurt.to.much..

A trade..for..a catcher..would be good as well..
