Yeah but the Mariners could gone higher on the yearly salary instead of years. Like the problem with them and Wong. You can’t offer less years if the money is the same.

No I got that. You know as well as I do that the M's don't want to pay long term nor do they want to pay a higher yearly average.

And yet neither contract hurt them. They still made plenty of profit and the franchise value went up in the tens or hundreds of millions. Cheap ass bastards.
