Morales: So now we all know what we thought we knew

[PolarVortex]

He didn't want to be here. He said as much in a interview with Seattle reporters last night. The excerpt from the interview is posted in MLBTR.

No, it isn't. But there were alot of people in here who couldn't accept that. They thought the issue was money. But it never was. Morales was not going to re-sign here for a contract equivalent to his true market value. They would have had to grossly overpay him and even then it may not have been enough to sway him.
