1 billion or a half a billion. pretty meaningless; bottom line is the Yanks are a much better team than the M's for a good long time. The M's spent a ton of money on mediocre free agents that havent paid off.
You two should seriously get a room and exchange fluids. You'd be much happier in the long run.

Mediocre free agents? What, you think the Beltre signing was a bad deal? Other than Arod, can you please give me the names of all the third basemen who are better? I'll save you the time: there are none.
Sexson's had a bad year but was fantastic last year. McLaren holds too much allegiance to the vets, and should have platooned him sooner this year with Broussard playing well.
And you're going to say the M's have had bad free agent signings and not criticize the yankees for it? Oh boy you sure are objective aren't you.
Finally, don't like the M's thread: DON'T READ IT. Pretty simple.
Besides the $54 million can you guess the difference between the two. Here's a clue, it has something to do with October.>>
Again, very good research on your part.
"The answer was in the Patriots eyes. Gone were the swagger and c0ck sure smirks, replaced by downcast eyes and heads in hands. For his poise and leadership Eli Manning was named the game's MVP. The 2007 Giants were never perfect nor meant to be. They were fighters, scrappers....now they could be called something else, World Champions."
sigh. so defensive. Who said I didnt like the thread? Beltre is finally having a decent year; it's about time he put up half way decent numbers...they are paying him to put up monster numbers and he has barely delivered adequate ones. he had ONE huge season in L.A. cashed in big time and put up crap numbers for two years and hasnt come close to duplicating his power numbers.
What about Jeff Weaver? Jarrod Washburn, Carl Everett? ugh. Miguel batista? some very questionable moves. Must be tough to deal with? Depressing even...
<<because there are quite a few 3b better than Beltre....>>
Yes I would cause the CU servers to go down if I listed them all. LOL

Mediocre free agents? What, you think the Beltre signing was a bad deal? Other than Arod, can you please give me the names of all the third basemen who are better? I'll save you the time: there are none.
Chipper Jones has more hits, more runs, more doubles, more triples, more home runs, a higher average, more walks, less strikeouts, a higher OPS, a higher SLG%, a higher OPS and a much higher Fielding%.
Beltre has 4 more RBI and 9 more stolen bases.
Oh yeah, by the way Chipper has played in 14 less games and is 7 yrs. older.
Sorry, other than Arod, Beltre is the only third baseman I'd rather have. His combination of bat and glove are unrivaled in baseball.
Call me a homer, call me whatever you want, I am glad we got Beltre. Nobody but the brain-dead expected him to rival his numbers of his last year in LA.
It's hysterical to see the axtell-haters piling on, rambling on incoherently, falling over themselves trying to get jabs in at me.
Look, I DON'T CARE what you say...unlike you I don't leave this board thinking about it, or the members here. I laugh at how small-minded you twits are, how you are so anxious to call me the devil here but fail to realize you all contribute as much to the arguments as anyone.
axtell sweety, no one is falling over themselves; they arent trying very hard at all. they are just looking at the numbers; Beltre is over-rated and overpaid; thats pretty indisputable. It's OK to be a homer; it must absolutely KILL you to see Arod on the Yankees while the Mariners fade into the sunset. It must also kill you that Carlos Guillen flourished once he escaped Seattle
That's the ugliest looking Troll that I have ever seen. LOL

Geez can't you guys beat the lowly D'Rays. I mean you outspend them by over $80 million dollars (actual fact as opposed to your made up ones in the other thread), and as we all know ITS ONLY ABOUT THE PAYROLL.
And why would I do that? Perhaps you should realize after tonight's loss you'll only be 1.5 up on detroit and the wild card will be your only hope at getting into the playoffs, struggling to do so despite outspending every other team in the bigs.
Speaks volumes just how inept the yanks organization truly has become.
30 years of high payroll? Wow you are a master of revisionist history!
Wrong (as usual) but then I wouldn't expect a yankee fan to EVER be right. How many world series have you won in 6 years despite blowing a billion in salary? Oh that's right NONE.
I'm sure you're in pain - outspending the second team by tens of millions of dollars and still unable to buy a world series, and watching your reign on the al east end this year.
Feelin the heat about the yanks possibly missing the playoffs huh? Then what will you hang your hat on? The giants STINK, the Jets are worse...you going to spend all winter behind the woodshed?
Did you catch Joe Morgan mumbling something about the Mariners fading away with virtually no chance of the WC? I can't recall his exact quote. His quote was funny to me maybe because I was thinking about our resident Troll.

You clowns sure are mouthy when times are good...when the yanks were stinkin it up earlier this year, this board was tolerable and you morons were invisible. What will your excuses be when the yanks fail (again) to capture a world series?

I the great Axtrodamus predict that the Mariners will not make the playoffs in the year 2007. I also predict that the one called "stitzen" will not post in his Mariners run thread after multiple losses and many days in a row.

You two should seriously get a room and exchange fluids. You'd be much happier in the long run.
Seattle Mariners - $ 106,460,833
Arizona Diamondbacks - $ 52,067,546
Besides the $54 million can you guess the difference between the two. Here's a clue, it has something to do with October.

Yeah I know. After we make it 13 straight years in the playoffs I'll be declaring how inept our organization is

I'd think that 30 straight years of high payroll paying and not even a single World Series Appearance exemplifies inept.
Let's see, Yankees have 6 World Series Wins including 9 appearances in the same time.
Wrong (as usual) but then I wouldn't expect a yankee fan to EVER be right. How many world series have you won in 6 years despite blowing a billion in salary? Oh that's right NONE.
