Imagine Peter Angelos doing this

[Frobby]

Twins owner Jim Pohlad showed up at Twinsfest last weekend and, speaking at a fan forum, openly stated he’d love to sign Yu Darvish. 

What do you think the odds are of Peter Angelos showing up at Fanfest and answering fan questions?

 I don't think he would ever do that. Don't think he is fan friendly like that.

Frobby's pretty funny when he wants to be.

Personally speaking, especially for this offseason, Angelos should be the one answering the questions at FanFest. It will never happen, but he needs to give the fans some sort of plan/idea of where he sees his organization going. Because right now, the lack of direction is extremely frustrating.

Funny how some complain about the owner being too involved, then want him to be at FanFest making statements on who he would like to sign.

The last "public" appearance he had was at the half game mark at 2131.

He is going to be overly involved either way, so some of us would just like to hear of his overinvolvement before rather than after.   He is in the entertainment business but is likely the worst salesman of his product of any owner in all of sports.

Nah, it was at a Ravens game with Mark Teixeira!

Right, they’re one and the same.

My take is that folks probably feel like if he's going to meddle and be the de facto GM, then he should also be accessible and accountable like a GM.

On the other hand, imagine what would happen if he showed up and was completely honest in the Q&A?

”For starting pitching, we’re talking to Tillman. And we’d love to have Cobb or Darvish here on a 1-year deal in the range of $10M to $12M. Pending physicals.”

”We’re not looking at many offensive upgrades at this time. We already have the leading home run hitters from 2013, 2015 and 2016 at first base and right field. No other team can say that.”
