Are the mariners going to make it to the playoffs?

Answer 1

Because the bulk of their roster comes from the signing of aging and overpriced free agents. To win Baseball games, you need to trade wissely and develop talent through a farm system. (See: Tampa Bay Rays)

Answer 2

Because, for a team to be any good it has to have at least 5 good players in the line up, and at least 6 good players in your pitching staff. But to get this many good players, the team needs a lot of money. This money comes from a good fan base. And lets face it, Seattle doesn't have a good fan base.

Answer 3

Nope, they have been good in the past. Real good actually. But right now they suck really really bad.

Answer 4

Possibly, considering the Orioles did that feat by not having a large payroll.
