Maybe they'll contract? (Runs away before someone kicks my ash ...)

They'll have to wait in line behind the White Sox.

This is somewhat uniformed speculation, but you wonder if the rest of the Pohlad family, none of whom are baseball fanatics, decided the one who they put in charge was showing signs of having Fredo Corleone's competence and that it would be a good time to get out of the business. He was purportedly the only grandson of Carl who had a strong interest in eventually taking over, so they set him up with a stream of jobs to get him the requisite experience; however, he allegedly mismanaged the family's radio station business in an earlier gig, and it certainly doesn't seem he's covering himself in glory in running the baseball team.

He was banging ball girls, two at a time?

At least they trusted the guy with the family business. The Johnson and Johnson family had so little respect for Woody they never let him near the family business. So he bought the Jets.
