  1. I hate to bring it up but it almost feels like getting rid of the most entertaining Twins hitter in a decade did nothing to improve the team......
  2. As I said the moment they announce they would "explore" selling the team, there is a big gap between "exploring" a sale and making a sale. And sadly for the average Twins fan, there could likely be an even bigger gap between selling the team and selling the team to someone who operates it in a manner the average Twins fan would approve of.
  3. Fresh off an article on this very site about three former Twins relievers achieving post-season success this very post-season. Touche
  4. Should trade him from the bullpen to the starting rotation.
  5. 65, 69 and 70 weren't bad either. Trading away Blylevin & Carew sucked. I'd like to think the purge in 81 & 82 lead to 87 & 91.
  6. You named 7 potential replacements for the two cornerstone pitchers. History says that three of the seven will flame out, two will be average, one above average and one MIGHT become a star. Keep what you got. Find a way.
  7. Doc you should have been here BEFORE the current ownership bought the team.
  8. And as long as it remains teams like the Twins will struggle to make the playoffs 40% of the time and teams like the Yankees and Dodgers will meet for the title. But if you're good with that who am I to disagree.
  9. That will be great. If all we have to do to win the World Series is be competitive with the AL Central. If we have to compete with the Yankees, Dodgers, Red Sox, Phillies and Astros it might be a different story.
  10. At best local television revenues will be cut in half. Good luck with that.
  11. Which means that whatever they do next year will only be a short term plan. Future years will need to generate more dollars or things will get quite grim around these parts baseball wise.
  12. Good to know. However, will also, from what I've heard, not generate any monies for the team. Which tells me that that will be a not very long term solution. Local television revenues will go from $40-$50 million to $4-$5 million.
  13. I love hearing complaints about ownership "frugality" Some of us are old enough to remember a world that existed before they bought this team. Some of us are old enough to remember the Twins being the first team to pay player $3 million a season. Some of us are old enough to remember the Twins being the first team to pay a player $6 million in a season.
  14. I'll be ecstatic if that's the case but, again, all I'm hearing about is the streaming side of things. Not to mention that those cable packages were previously bringing in tens of millions of dollars and everything I'm hearing says that money is going away. Cable options won't be long for this world is they aren't bringing in those dollars.
  15. Be careful what you wish for. You might get it.
  16. Part of a cable package I would have paid for regardless of the presence of the Twins. Will cost me no less with the Twins not on it.
  17. Explain to me why I want to pay for a product I have received for free for my entire life. I went three months without in 2024 and my life was no less complete. I'll be fine. Fewer fans will be interested in the team and attendance will show it. Just sayin
  18. Trading your best player doesn't make you better. KG, Moss, Rod Carew, Blylevin. Has never worked. KAT will likely prove more of the same. Moving Correa is NOT a good idea. Figure out how to NOT make this move.
  19. You might as well throw in Emanuel Rodriguez cuz the Cubs' likelihood of moving Alcantrara is the same as the Twins moving Rodriguez. And, sure, move the best reliever on a club with questionable SP. That makes sense.
  20. Until owners AND players agree to a revenue sharing / salary cap model I will have NO sympathy for anyone other than the fans.
