I'm not sure what's worse to watch right now...the Twins pitchers try to hold a marginal lead, or the hitters attempting to hit.

Yes.

Twins could very well win the division this season. Then they could also get swept in the playoffs again. And no, there is no David Ortiz curse, there is the quality of pitching that most playoff teams have and the Twins do not have

Bold to assume we're going to waltz into the playoffs. At this point, it appears that 2019 was the outlier for a fair number of these players, rather than them progressing into the stars we hoped they would become. Of course, it's early and things likely will trend upwards.

If Duffey is not the Duffey we've seen in the past, which given the start of the season and spring, he isn't, the bullpen is in trouble. The reshaped bullpen has a lot lying on Duffey's shoulders, and if he doesn't have it, the bullpen is in trouble.

Is pitching really the main problem for this team right now?

Between the recent communication of the Twins front office and the product the team is currently putting out there it might be a struggle for them to fill those 10k seats per game.

The bullpen is just not good. I said it before the season started. This season might not be the season we all expect.

Central division is weak, our offense will come around, I still believe pitching is our biggest issue

Well it’s not JUST not good, from what we’ve seen, this might be the worst bullpen in history.
