From my understanding the big reasons that the Twins are on the list is 1) Carl Pohlad is willing to let them go for $250 mill, I guess the $1.8 billion he is worth is not enough for him, 2) The Twins are debt free, 3)We have no viable stadium to bring in the needed revenue to succeed in the future.

As far as the Devil Rays, it sounds like they are tied into a 30 year lease, and have highly paid players that may not be taken in a dispersal draft. They do play in the one stadium that is worst than the Metrodome for baseball.

The other thing that sucks if Minnesota is contracted we will probably have another team that we will end up paying so much more in the long run.
