Has Bob ever tried to move the team before? Because the Pohlads tried to move the Twins and almost did. It can always get worse.

That happened before he owned the team.

When he became a minority owner and then majority owner, PNC Park was already built. So had ZERO excuses.

Didnt Pohlad buy the Twins way back when because he promised to keep the team in Minnesota? The other potential buyer at the time didnt make that promise. I believe that guys name was Donald Trump ?????

so yah ... it can always get worse

The Pohlad family purchased the Twins back in 1984 - I was only 5 at the time so I don’t know if they threatened to move back then.
I do know they needed a new stadium and threatened to move but then mlb had contraction on the table and the Twins were one of the two teams along with the Expos.

So it can always be worse as in your teams owner can threaten to dissolve the team for a nice kickback.

Or move them to Lethbridge.

Well, the COVID booster doesn't mess around. Knocked out our whole family today.

But I've got a meeting this morning, and I'm baking my mother-in-law's birthday cake, and we've got some chores to do, so... I guess we'll do our best!

It’s October, so Kike Hernandez hit another huge home run.

It is amazing his whole career is the post season.

Watching these playoffs and all of the bullpen usage and starters not pitching long makes it all the more frustrating the Mariners offense couldn’t help our rotation just get in the dance. I firmly believe we’d have been favorites with a semi competent offense.
