Bottom line is that we fans were promised contending teams. Two years ago a team not used to having money to spend gave it a try and failed miserably. So during the winter of of 11-12 after the worst season in recent history the twins decreased payroll for the 2012 season by over 18 million dollars going from 112 to 84 million. To no one's surprise, the team failed again this past year. Here we are one year later being fed the same lines as last year and it appears the twins are again going to unload enter the season with a lower payroll. Shoudl it come to a surpris to any of us that they are again terrible this next August? I get that you can't spend all your money three or four guys on your team, but you still have to put a product on the field that me, you, and all the other fans out there want to spend hard earned money on. This includes spending between 10 and 20 million a year on a pitcher we can ever pretend is an ace after having the worst staff in the league for two years. The realization is that this is a business, and unless somethign has an impact on the bottom line the Pohlad's will not respond.....so doesn't that really make this all our fault in the end?
