I feel like we have a roster constructed by the marketing department. Lots of familiar names. Some good 5 years ago, some 1st round picks who should be better than they are. A coaching staff reinforced with former Twins. It seems like it is designed to give fans the illusion of competency.
Absolutely this! Spend and make the team better, or blow it all up and let the kids (actual young players) play. But, please don't trot out the same team for a third year in a row and expect different results!!!
This is one of the most reasonable scenarios I've heard for why anyone would invest in a minority stake in this team. Unfortunately, it doesn't bode well for the next 2 seasons 😕
Baldelli will be here as long as his contract says the Pohlads have to pay him. Falvey will continue his gaslighting and tell us all they believe in their core. The Quality Assurance coach will be fired, and maybe an equipment manager. And we will have deja vu all over again 😫
It seems as though Baldelli has attended the Pohlad School of Public Speaking. Talking in circles, contradicting the obvious, and generally sounding clueless.
This makes no sense whatsoever. Why would anyone pay above market price to hitch their wagon to this s***show? Without a controlling interest and no path to one? 2 groups were willing to do this, somewhere in the neighborhood of $400m? There has to be more to this!
