RIP
I know he was cheap when it came to spending money on FA but he had what a lot of us would want…billions of dollars and a MLB team.
Miami bound...
93

Wow
I thought I’d be the first to make a Billy Heywood reference. Little Big League was always my favorite of the kids baseball movies. It even had Kevin Elster! Soooooo much better than Rookie of the Year.
He doesn’t strike me as a controversial rich guy.
Child of the Depression, worked in standard meat and potatoes industries, generally stayed out of trouble.
Do you mean with Twins FA signings?

How about offering to have the Twins contracted?
if MLB bought him out? That seems like a good reason for fans to hold a grudge.
Nothing pithy here. Please move long.
Fans in the Twin Cities
They’re much more happy about the new stadium coming along than they are angry about the contraction issue. It’s been over 10 years and they’ve been pretty successful since then.
