" I'm -- Sparage kind of talk Major League Baseball and foxsports.com. Senior baseball writer Ken Rosenthal and -- a few days ago it seemed like a foregone conclusion that Ken Griffey junior was headed to Atlanta so how exactly wide open Seattle."

" Well that's the really difficult decision for -- Griffey junior probably more difficult in more complex then most of us on the outside -- match. Griffey obviously was taught by the all ties to Seattle. It's where he began his career had his best years he still has very close with the team president chuck Armstrong as well as the CEO Howard Lincoln. The other thing about the Mariners is that in the American he's still have the -- of the designated hitters role on dates the camp played the outfield. That said he was really at one point leaning toward Atlanta. And the reason for that is simply geography and perhaps the competitiveness of the team as well. The Braves -- or land which is where Griffey lives for the Stanley. Obviously Atlanta is closer to Orlando and Seattle. And there were a lot of those things going through Griffey's line as he approached this decision. But in the end he just decided that forest legacy.

" No we're not going his salary cap and John Henry is engaging losers -- Still upset that the Yankees outbid the Red Sox from market share. But how an owner who did 160 million dollars this year can come out in favor of -- salary cap. Is somewhat beyond the sport is doing just fine without a cap. There's plenty of competitive balance as we've seen all these different champions in any decade of the 2000. And you also seen through revenue sharing and the luxury tax proceeds. Teams like to read between the eighties lower revenue clubs be extremely competitive. The salary cap is that tired old war horse to the owners bring out every time the Yankees start spending money. In reality the Yankees are good for the game they give everyone arrival shoot for as long as they don't win every year. It certainly is something that has not happening of late. People should --"
