Minnesota Twins fans react to report team may significantly increase payroll soon: "This is so refreshing to hear"

The Minnesota Twins have been a team on the rise over the last few seasons, and now reports indicate they could make a financial upgrade. With no hard limit to spending in MLB, teams are able to decide on their own how much they spend. Of course, the more a team spends, the more likely it is to win. The Twins are clearly hoping to win more and elevate their team in the near future.The Twins are a smaller market team relative to the big players, but they are among the best in the American League Central. They have a well-built roster that is headlined by a bona fide star player and that can only be improved with more money.Dan Hayes of The Athletic reported on the team's likeliehood of increasing spending and when it could happen, via Twitter.DanHayesMLB@DanHayesMLBHe didn't say a specific amount, but new #MNTwins owner Joe Pohlad indicated a significant payroll increase in the future is possible.

One of Pohlad's factor's is a healthy business. #MNTwins say they project to hit 2 mil in ticket sales this season, up from 1.8 mil last year but down from 2.3 mil in '19.6Just to be clear on this, I don't suspect the 2023 payroll is increasing by much more than it currently is. One of Pohlad's factor's is a healthy business. #MNTwins say they project to hit 2 mil in ticket sales this season, up from 1.8 mil last year but down from 2.3 mil in '19.Minnesota Twins fans were very happy to hear of this development. Having an ownership group that is clearly committed to winning can do wonders for a team and their fanbase. They proved they are willing to spend for stars earlier this season when they re-signed Carlos Correa. However, more will need to be invested to build a championship team around him.Twins Talk@LetsTalk_TwinsThis is so refreshing to hear.

Gotta win to have a healthy business. Said winning may come at a little extra cost.@DanHayesMLB Kind of a catch 22 cop out, no? Gotta win to have a healthy business. Said winning may come at a little extra cost.The New York Mets and San Diego Padres have made high spending feel like the new normal for MLB. Many teams, like the Minnesota Twins, make up the middle ground for the league. They spend enough to remain competitive, but not enough to be a perennial favorite. As their financial situation continues to improve, fans would love to see more and more money poured into the roster.Will Nye@willfnye@DanHayesMLB They are closer to us this year payroll wise, but the Twins really should look to St. Louis as a model organization from a revenue/cost standpoint. Cards routinely flirt with a Top 10 payroll but I'm sure their gameday/media deals are better than ours.2@DanHayesMLB They are closer to us this year payroll wise, but the Twins really should look to St. Louis as a model organization from a revenue/cost standpoint.

The farm system is no longer the only way for teams to add stars to their roster. It may be the most cost-effective way too, but it is far from being a guarantee. If the Minnesota Twins can add a big name next offseason, they could be a force to be reckoned with in the American League.Carl@PrimeKirilloffLeCorrea’s impact… twitter.com/danhayesmlb/st…DanHayesMLB@DanHayesMLBHe didn't say a specific amount, but new #MNTwins owner Joe Pohlad indicated a significant payroll increase in the future is possible.
