Jeff Weaver- 6th team
 
Just signed with the Seattle Mariners. It will be his 6th different team in his
8th season of being in the big leagues.

He got his ring last year with the Cards.

His teams since 1999- Tigers, Yankees, Dodgers, Angels, Cardinals and now Mariners.

I wonder if Jeff or his brother Jared know that Indian Weaver is running today at SA in the 6th? WIth the money these boys have they could drop a 50K win bet and not even care.

Imagine if he ran against Spooky Mulder? That would be funny. Mark Mulder could afford to drop a 200K win bet on him and not care.

Indian Weaver also started out his career here just ouside of Seattle over at Emerald Downs, and was also ridden by Pat Day

I hope they have a good pitching coach and sports psych up there in Seattle cuz Weavers' been shaky most of his carreer. For the same money he should have stayed loyal with the Cards, who rescued his carreer.

Weaver pitched good when it counted last year. You can never take that away from him. I dont think the Cards would have won if he wasnt in that rotation.

He's going right back to the AL west where he sucked for the Angels. He should have stayed in the NL.

I dont think the Cards were offering the same money.

I'm not positive but I heard the Cards offered 8mil for one year! I don't know if Seattle has a team option for 2008

Just read that the Cards offered Weaver 6mil plus incentives,which probably would have been close to Seattles' offer. Money's money...but I still think he should have stayed with Cards!

What makes you think he could reach any incentives? He knows he sucks and took 2 million more.
