@Gravel_sense Lmao it Hancocks value is high enough to net you Skubal after where he was start of last year I’ll lose it

[Mariners Sadness @MarinersSadness]

@JJBarnes18 Don’t forget it was “how the hell can we keep both” for like 3 years

[Mariners Sadness @MarinersSadness]

@TridentTrue Ya whatever this one fits pretty cleanly in the “you can’t win them all” category. Enjoy the off day and move on

[Mariners Sadness @MarinersSadness]

@TridentTrue He’s a superstar in Seattle but he could he a God in Tacoma

[Mariners Sadness @MarinersSadness]

@questionableway It’s cause the Mariners have em all. Literally have a 6 man rotation and 2 prospects that would be called up in an instant if needed

[Mariners Sadness @MarinersSadness]

@YankeeLibrarian Toronto was also a top 10 payroll team last year.

[Mariners Sadness @MarinersSadness]

@PeteATurner MLB has a market size parity problem, not a strict parity problem. And fans don’t care specifically about parity. They care about any market being equally able to compete. That couldn’t be further from the truth today.

[Mariners Sadness @MarinersSadness]

@BMeek23 @JayRBP @skraxxy Revenue sharing itself doesn’t fully solve the problem. Revenue sharing + high floor + cap all play a role

[Mariners Sadness @MarinersSadness]

@BMeek23 @JayRBP @skraxxy I’m not anti revenue sharing. Feel like that’ll be impossible to pass but would be a huge fan of MLB getting closer to NFL level of revenue sharing.

[Mariners Sadness @MarinersSadness]

@mrtommygman I just don’t think it’s real. I don’t think owners are united, it’s just a bargaining chip. The floor will move down, cap up, etc.

[Mariners Sadness @MarinersSadness]

@_24kin Dodgers and Yankees get to buy out their mistakes. They can be riskier and it absolutely pays off. If the Brewers sign a free agent and it doesn’t work, it could derail and entire window. That’s the difference. Stop arguing in bad faith.

[Mariners Sadness @MarinersSadness]

@AngryMariners If you tore up every contract and made everyone a free agent for 1 offseason, the Yankees, Dodgers, and Mets would immediately be favorites before a single signing. Broken system.

[Mariners Sadness @MarinersSadness]

@_24kin @BelieveTheLand I think it’s awesome a mid market team like KC can build a super team in the NFL. No one can accuse of them purchasing rings, they literally drafted/developed/coached better. Fans love to hate dynasties like that

[Mariners Sadness @MarinersSadness]

@BNightengale I’m pro player in general but they won’t get a lot of sympathy from fans whining about their $300m payday while the Dodgers purchase a 3rd World Series. Make it a high cap so players reap the rewards but I’m so sick of large market teams being the only winners in this league

[Mariners Sadness @MarinersSadness]

@skraxxy @JayRBP I’m also pro player here. Reduce control years, institute a high floor, require strict financial audits when cap setting, etc. I just can’t stand knowing the bottom 20 payroll teams already have no shot to win a World Series.

[Mariners Sadness @MarinersSadness]

@skraxxy @JayRBP I’m not mad at the NFL for allowing the chiefs to go to three straight superbowls. Fans love to hate dynasties but we don’t question the sport when it happens. It’s awesome a small Midwest city can build a super team. The royals will literally never be able to do that.

[Mariners Sadness @MarinersSadness]

@skraxxy @JayRBP To show me parity can you show me how often teams win a World Series when not having a top 10 payroll?

[Mariners Sadness @MarinersSadness]

@JayRBP @skraxxy If you make every player a free agent and have one massive free agency, the dodgers and Yankees would immediately be favorites before a single signing. Broken system.

[Mariners Sadness @MarinersSadness]

@The_Couch_GM If the mariners could’ve moved him they would’ve.
