Exactly. You've nailed it here. And I am so tired of hearing that we are a 'small market team' so can't compete with the big boys. The CC situation could have, and should have been handled much better. The Twins final offer wasn't even competitive. As for the 'frigid north' where no one wants to play, players love it here once they figure out how great Target Field and the Twin Cities is to call home. What they don't like is playing for a franchise that isn't committed to putting a winning team on the field. 2023 is looking like another year of saving my money to travel to other cities for some top-quality games. And to St. Paul, since I love baseball, but don't want to spend my life savings watching it.
