djtest,
some owners are cheap and it is well known, however, most as you stated are just businessmen.
I remember when barry bonds was due a few years back to have possibly been a FA and of course the Yankees were the talk of the town as the frontrunners for him, he replied by saying that
SF is one of the major markets in the world, money is there it is up to the owner to spend it.
not all markets are the same and not all owners think the same.
Some are just a buncha tight asses though.
