First of all I have been a life long Twins fan with some of my earliest Twins memories comming when they beat St. Louis in the 1987 World Series. Twins have now lost 12 straight playoff games with the last win comming against the Yankees in 2004. Gardenhire seems like a good guy and may even be named Manager of the Year. This is no longer the Twins team with one of the smallest payrolls in the game, they are 11th among all MLB teams(98 million), and also have the new ballpark. The Pohlad family who owns the team has told people in the know that Gardenhire can manage the twins for as long as he wants, what a joke. Gardenhire needs to be fired. They will raise their cute little Central Division banner in April, which imo doesn't mean shit...it means you beat out the Royals, Indians, White Sox and Tigers. Enough is enough the guy doesn't know how to manage in the playoffs. Tom Kelly knew how to manage in the playoffs with much lesser talent...enough is enough and the thought of him having the job for as long as he wants makes me wanna puke...**** you Gardenhire.
