All Things 2025 Minnesota Twins In-Season Thread

I'm a cash flow kind of guy. That sounds long term. Since you didn't list assets here, It is really hard to see the whole picture. I could say "Ooo, kind of bigly" but I would be lying.

If you're a cash flow kind of guy then the elimination of the bulk of what was a $55 million revenue stream should be a pretty obvious "cause and effect".

Two things:
1. Those uniforms, white pants or not, are atrocious.
2. The best the Twins can do when promoting their team is using France and Bader? Did they already use up all the contractual media responsibilities of the players that people actually know? This team is sunk.

I'm with ya. Those uni's are awful

My guess is they're between $25-30 million in local TV revenue now. A big drop from $55 but some are claiming it's under $5 million now and that's just not true.

Just effect. Without the balance sheet and the budget, it really only shows that management made a decision. It does not indicate why.

Unserious organization.

This has to get demoralizing at times even for the diehard baseball guys on here. The White Sox must be smelling blood.

I care less and less each day. I don’t like ownership, the front office or the manager and there are few players I find worth rooting for. You know they were hoping against hope that they'd prove all the naysayers wrong and play winning baseball without aggressively trying to improve the team. It's not working out that way and any good will they had from finally winning a playoff series is gone.

Given what the Padres made last year, I don't think the Twins are anywhere near $25 million.

16-38 in their last 54 games.

And then he apparently is walking off the field, instead of putting his head down and hustling off. A veteran needs to call him out in front of everyone and tell them this shit stops now. Gladden would’ve thrown him up against a wall

Same problem as the Wolves, Rocco just like Finch wants to be everyone’s buddy, instead of Managing them and being an authority figure.

I not sure you can manage by fear in 2025. We as a society are soft. At a minimum he should apologize to his teammates and probably sit a couple of games.

It’s also on Miranda to I don’t know maybe give a shit too.

With this Collection it’s gonna be a long season cause no one is coming to save the .

He will play in front of more people in St. Paul.

2 for 1 Seltzer Night packs 'em in on the East side of the Mississippi River.

They should be offering 2-for-1 Alka Seltzer Nights on the West side.

That's what I'm saying. The reports that the Padres "made $4 million" last year are also false. They made $4 million off the streaming packages. They were also on regular TV. That still makes a lot more than the streaming. I would guess the Twins will make $20-25 from the TV providers and $3-4 from the streaming. Plus they get all the advertising revenue, but that's probably offset by the production costs.

Rocco needs to go immediately. This team has far more talent than to play that badly for that long. The 3rd grade mental error reflect on Rocco. They're not inspired by him. They don't fear him. They don't care.
