Hello all,

Well I finally got around to reading Reusse's column on the Viking's new GM. In it he mentions the nickname Falvine. It is hilarious how widespread this has become. It is and has remained quite the creation. In my recollection this name originated right here on Twins Daily! I just can't remember when I first saw it. It is high time this wordsmith stands up and is recognized for this grand achievement. Hark, who art thou?

Unsung hero? A simple search based on date:

These guys are doing exactly what I'd do: Take the gig, then refrain from major changes until you can see how the organization works and is run.

 

In most cases, new CEOs of companies don't overhaul staff right away. But over the following months you start seeing resignations from top management, etc. I'd imagine that some of the top people in the Twins FO will ultimately leave simply because it'll be different management.

 

In this case, my guess is that Falvine (Falvey + Levine) did not decide to dump Bruno but went on the recommendations of Molitor and Antony. 

 

This is the right idea, IMO. They don't know enough about the organization yet to make major changes, I think. And as long as Molitor is going to be the coach one more year he might as well have major say on the coaches. And they'll have their hands full building front office staff.
