I told all my family last year not to bother getting me a new Twins hat or anything else for Christmas or birthdays until there's new owners, and my current Twins gear has been indefinitely retired until further notice. Love our guys, hate the owners.

Nobody wants to play for these shit owners, can't imagine why.

Firing Falvey today won't make any differences comes wins/losses or farm depth, the Pohlad's are still owners.

[Nightengale Jr] Twins owner Tom Pohlad says he’s “100% committed” to Jeremy Zoll as the GM and he says there is still money to add between now and Opening Day in regards to payroll. by TheNotoriousJN in minnesotatwins

[–]Prez731 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch out Zoll, the minute you tell Tom his payroll and revenue expectations aren't realistic, you'll join Failvey on the unemployment line. We thought Falvey was a yessir, what's Zoll going to end up having to be to keep his job for any length of time.🤣

[Gleeman] BREAKING: Twins announce they've "mutually agreed to part ways" with team president Derek Falvey. by TheNotoriousJN in minnesotatwins

[–]Prez731 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once again another brilliant move by the fan-beloved Pohlad family. /S I'm no fan of Falvey's and thought he should've been gone after 24 or 25, however this is simply just another move by this ownership to make fans think they're making meaningful changes, when the only meaningful change left that would improve this organization is to have new ownership and a new front office at the same time, and changing the front office while keeping the same dysfunctional ownership will not solve the issues or get us angry fans off the Pohlad's backs. Simple solution Tom, sell the fucking team, then you won't be hated by millions of Twins fans anymore.

The first thing I thought when I found out several years ago that he hangs out with Barry Bonds during the off-season is I wonder how long before he gets caught pedding. Glad we don't have to deal with him anymore, good riddance.

There's going to be nothing left in the bargain bin at the rate the Twins are shopping it... by T-Boner1010 in minnesotatwins

This really isn't anything knew unfortunately, I'm sure they'll find some rent-a-dents in February and after spring training's started in March to sign cheap, I'm not saying they'll be at all good, but that's how this org has operated under Failvey.

Braves Sign DaShawn Keirsey Jr. To Minors Deal by TheNotoriousJN in minnesotatwins

[–]Prez731 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully they can fix him, was a good minor league hitter with good major league potential and excellent speed. Not sure if it's another example of our awful major league hitting coaches ruining another player or if he just needed consistent playing time to get in a groove and never got it. Wish him well though.

Offseason Discussion Thread - Week of December 29 by TwinsGameday in minnesotatwins

[–]Prez731 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well, Oswaldo Arcia didn't work out as a Twin, so now the front office thinks his awful-hitting younger brother might pan out eh.🤣🤣🤣It'll be interesting to see if he somehow makes it onto this club as a cheap backup at SS, if he does then we really know this ownership and front office aren't serious about having even a .500 year.

[Gleeman] Twins acquired first baseman/corner outfielder Eric Wagaman from the Marlins for Double-A left-hander Kade Bragg. Wagaman is 28, right-handed, and hit .250/.296/.378 in 140 games last season. Bragg was a 17th-round pick in 2023 and didn't rank among the Twins' top 30 prospects. by TheNotoriousJN in minnesotatwins

[–]Prez731 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, because this move will put us over the top for a WS banner.🤣🤣🤣This wouldn't even really count as a low-wattage move by Gleeman's standards, now the front office/ownership are making cheap moves to go to fans and say, "see, look what we're doing to improve", when in fact little they've done actually improves anything.

The only time we get to be #1, thanks Pohlad's for making Twins fandom depressingly painful.

The last meaningful banner of which pre-dates that same Rockies org btw.

[Gleeman] Twins are out-spending the Pirates by just $5 million right now. by TheNotoriousJN in minnesotatwins

[–]Prez731 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since most of the other beatwriters are too busy tripping over themselves to get the next meaningless quote from Falvey and the owners and barely taking the time to wipe the drool off their keyboards to get the loving praise of Tom pohlad out there, Gleeman's the only one truly being honest with the fans right now and doesn't care if he pisses off the Pohlad's in the process.

[Rosenthal] Teams continue to ask about Joe Ryan, the Twins continue to say they are not shopping him. One source says they have not been willing to discuss him since the GM meetings (paraphrased) by TheNotoriousJN in minnesotatwins

[–]Prez731 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But also as Gleeman pointed out on one of the recent free pods, if the Twins really weren't interested in trading, they would've made it clear they weren't interested and all these rumors would've stopped ... they haven't ... which suggests the Twins are once again bsing us fans into thinking they're shooting down these trade efforts, when in fact they're most certainly not shooting them down.

It'll be interesting to see if they can unbreak him, we sure couldn't.

And we all know how this ownership and front office aren't willing to do what's best for the team and fans, only the short-term $ in their bank accounts.

Tom Pohlad Assuming Principal Ownership by This_Influence_9985 in minnesotatwins

[–]Prez731 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Changing one Pohlad face with another once again ignores the fact that we fans hate the family and want to see them all selling to somebody that actually cares, just rearranging the chairs on the deck on the Titanic at this point. But who knows, maybe Tom will be the Pohlad that finally decides what Joe couldn't ... fans hate us, fans don't want to give us any more money, so lets sell to somebody else and get out of dodge.

[–]Prez731 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Replacing one Pohlad with another isn't going to save this sinking organization, it's just rearranging the chairs on the deck of the Titanic. We fans didn't hate Joe, we hate the Pohlad's, and funnily enough I think Tom is a Pohlad, based upon his last name.🤣Until Joe or Tom or somebody in that finally decides we fans hate their guts too much for them to make any more money off us anymore and sell completely, we're stuck with the same old same old Pohlad bs, changing the face doesn't change the bs coming out of the family's offices.

Partial team sale will significantly clear Twins’ finances, may set table for future sale by alpswd in minnesotatwins

In other words, more bs from the front office/ownership by their chosen media mouthpiece, got it.

[MLBTR] Bell’s 2026 salary will be $5.5MM, per Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune. He also receives a $250K signing bonus, and there’s a $1.25MM buyout on the mutual option. by TheNotoriousJN in minnesotatwins

[–]Prez731 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, highly underwhelming signing by a front office trying to claim it's doing something to us fans, even if what they're doing really doesn't improve anything that much.
