I mean, based on what people are saying about Minnesota and how terrible it is to live and raise a family in. Give me a break - this is a culture thing. Teams can't take the Twins serious because of how they have handled free agency in the past. Oh, and if they aren't going to be players in FA because of it being something that the player has to also agree to, then you go out and make a damn trade to BRING a guy to Minnesota where he has no choice. You force the hand, and stop sitting on these "prospects" that, more often than not, are never going to pan out. These excuse based articles, and continued support of the Twins and their lack of involvement in free agency should piss off any Twins fan that is legit about their team competing for a World Series.
