SEATTLE -- Wednesday will go down in Seattle baseball history as the day the team lost Hall of Fame announcer Dave Niehaus to a heart attack."Mariner baseball will never be the same," Jay Buhner said Thursday when a group of former Mariners living in the area and some of the Seattle front office gathered to reminisce about one of the best guys any of them have ever known.
Earlier in the day Wednesday, however, it was all baseball at Safeco Field. It was the annual owners' meeting, and the owners set the budget for the 2011 season.
According to a source who was in the room, the Mariners, whose problems in the 2010 season started when they trimmed about $10 million from the 2009 budget, won't be going down that road again.
"The player payroll for the 2011 season will not go down," the source told FanHouse Thursday.
