It's been obvious that Falvey is never leading the Twins to the promised land since the 2019 trade deadline. He's simply not a good GM, doesn't hold those under him accountable and it's absurd that he now runs the business side too. The new owner needs to fire him on day 2.
Me too. I actually thought there was a chance he'd be fired by Thursday evening before the road trip. Unbelievable. I mean Falvey deserves to be fired more than Rocco, but we knew that wasn't happening.
The Twins will be 10 games under .500 by the trade deadline, let's be real.
Trade France, Bader and Columbe obviously.
Also Duran, Stewart, Castro, Paddock and Topa and Vazquez if anyone will take them.
Jax earned a chance to get right, but enough already. He's worse than Pagan. You can't send him out there in anything but a mop-up situation for at least his next 3-4 outings. Either that or domote him.
If they were only going to sell if they got blown away, they'd never have publicly discussed it. I think the family wants out. Jim is done with it. His brothers never wanted it and Joe is an incompetent bafoon which the older ones now realize.
I think they were pretty far down the road with Ishbia when he pulled the plug, so it delayed things a lot. But if they have any sense, they will still take the next best offer and run. The public is as down on them as they've been since the contraction days and it will be even harder to recover. I don't really think they can.
It can marginally improve both if a change can spark at least .500 tolerable baseball. It won't cause either to do a 180.
What's the argument AGAINST firing Rocco? And don't say $$ because neither Toby G nor Tingler will get massive raises for being the interim.
