Game 92, Mariners at Indians

The M’s will be showcasing Bedard today after yesterday’s Washburn focus. If you act now, qualified buyers can get cash back and 0% financing on this starter and easy payment terms including PTBNL and live arms not on the 40-man roster. Bedard is estimated to retain his resale value over the next month if you drop from contention. Plus there’s a limited-time government incentive of $4,500 if you trade in your old starter to be recycled. And if you call today, we’ll throw in the Mariner Moose. That’s right, the Mariner Moose, yours for one homestand to show off to fans, rent out to furry conventions, whatever you want as long as it’s legal or the cops don’t find out.

Larry Stone has a smart, fairly long discussion with Wakamatsu about the Rob Johnson-Johjima playing time split.

    The Penguins almost went bankrupt and were saved by the loyalty of Mario Lemieux to the fans of Pittsburgh.

    The Pirates are going to discover there is a lot less luxury tax money in upcoming seasons. The cost to the Yankees of new Yankee Stadium comes off the luxury tax. In essence, the Pirates, Marlins, Royals etc. are paying for it (or at least the part the Yankees are responsible for).

    …Yeah, it’s not like the Yankees ever earned any money for the Pirates, Marlins and Royals due to the revenue sharing.

    I didn’t mean the Penguins had tons of money. I meant they make good moves and have a good team. The Pirates, on the other hand…

    It’d be cool to see GMZ make a move and pick up one or both of these guys for a fire sale price. I really love the way our GM operates!

    The Yankees don’t “earn” money for other teams; other teams earn money for the Yankees, which they spend against those teams. Revenue sharing is a tiny recompense for that. If the Yankees didn’t like it, they could find some other major league baseball teams to play.

    Ichiro, you are so awesome.

    A while back, some national sportswriter was eagerly looking forward to attending an Indian game. He wanted to watch JODY GERUT play.

    (The Indians were playing the Mariners.)
