    I'd say the Buck Ninety Fan Club Inspiration but he is already employed.
  2. spanman2
    Great gig if you can get it and he got it...
  3. spanman2
    Does Joe have to approve that $50k expenditure or does Derek have the ok to approve it on the expense report...
  4. spanman2
    You are thinking logically...Pohlad's are thinking about the Benjamins...I agree with your overall take.
  5. spanman2
    I'd say the Price is Right with this move...Pohlad's ok'd paying the low price of admission.

    Funny...reminds me of the line in Moneyball where Brad Pitt makes one of his trades...And I want you to give me ______beverages so my players don't have to use the pay machine in the clubhouse.

    Spending that kind of $$$ they might need to ask the new ownership folks to take on some of that so it doesn't add on to their existing debt.
  8. spanman2
    You can't make this stuff up...

    I'd be interested in knowing what 'goals' Falvey has set for himself. Yes, the blame game train is out of track.
  10. spanman2
    Dodgers also have in the neighborhood of 1 BILLION in deferred contracts that stretches out the next 20 years or so.
  11. spanman2
    Sad but true.
  12. spanman2
    That was a Pohlad money saver trade...
  13. spanman2
    Are there 10 million Twins fans around the world that would be willing to contribute $3 each to make this $30,000,000 dream a reality? Had to do it...enjoy the day all.

    Resigning Sonny after '23 would have been one of those moves from the front office to show the players in the clubhouse and fans that they were serious about being competitive moving forward, Yes, other moves would have likely been necessary as well. My guess is attendance would have been where the powers that be would have liked to seen it be last season. Players didn't perform down the stretch last season and they need to own that. If they had Gray it would be great to see a rotation of Gray, Lopez or Lopez Gray along with Ryan and Ober as your top four. No doubt this offseason will be pivotal. Time will tell.

    Good grief...in front of the world.

    Joe to team...hey guys about that IA trip, I had an idea. I am thinking of car pooling. It would be a great opportunity to get to know each other. I was thinking of stopping at Pizza Ranch along the way for lunch...the organization will pick up 50% of the tab. Really looking forward this opportunity in from of the world to show what a great organization I am operating. WIN TWINS!
  17. spanman2
    No argument here on that take...
  18. spanman2
    All they had to do in '24 was leave payroll alone...I believe in '23 it was 163 or so...no one was expecting 200+, just like no one was expecting a 30 decrease.
  19. spanman2
    Well said. If they have a PR person advising that person is not doing their job. If they don't they need to hire one. They just don't get it.
  20. spanman2
    Is it possible the offer(s) made were significantly less than 1.7 they wanted...another shake your head moment in being a Twins fan.
  21. spanman2
    Still a member of the Country Club until new ownership shows him the door...I bet he got a little kicker from only having to eat 33 of Correas deal. Pohlads certainly have shown their true colors.
  22. spanman2
    Yes...between the ears he needs it. Fix the mechanics portion as well.
  23. spanman2
    Back to relevancy...playing ball that is fun to watch.
  24. spanman2
    Twins were the 1st MLB team to draw 3 MILL if my memory serves me correctly back in '88. We have an long list of things to do here during a baseball season...if ownership is committed to the product on the field there is no reason they shouldn't draw 30ish or so per game during the summer months.

    https://www.baseball-reference.com/teams/MIN/2006.shtml If memory serves me correctly the '06 was the team Guillen referred to some of the Twins as the 'little piranhas'...those low BA would be great for some of the players on this squad. Guys got on base played fundamental ball and took the action to the guys in the field.
