Pohlad family says it will keep Minnesota Twins after exploring sale options
The Pohlad family said they intend to keep the Minnesota Twins franchise, a change of heart after previously announcing their intentions to sell the team.
This comes after a major fire sale involving many high-profile players. With nine trades, the Twins managed to jettison close to 40% of their team. Foremost among those departures was shortstop Carlos Correa.
"Over the past several months, we explored a wide range of potential investment and ownership opportunities. Our focus throughout has been on what's best for the long-term future of the Twins. We have been fully open to all possibilities," Twins Executive Chair Joe Pohlad said Wednesday. "After a detailed and robust process, our family will remain the principal owner of the Minnesota Twins."
However, Pohlad said they intend to add "two significant limited partnership groups."
The 2025 season has not been a banner one for the club. The Twins are currently on track to log their lowest season attendance on record at Target Field.
