Last year, the Twins had an operating income of 16.6 million dollars, not too shabby. Some of the anger is the result of dishonesty exhibited by the Twins organization. During Season Ticket renewal, Dave St. Peter stated that the payroll was high last year, but would not dip much. St. Peter also stated on Espn 1500, "will end up at the end of the day being relatively comparable (to last season)." "I think I can say that I don't think payroll is going to be the number one barrier for us doing what we need to do to improve our baseball team" This is a direct paste from the Phil Mackey Article. Are these Statements true?
