The FO has made a lot of mistakes as of late. Keeping Pagan is laughable, especially when most people said during the offseason that bullpen was a huge need. Where I give them credit is addressing the rotation, something that held them back in 2019. Traded for Gray, Ryan, and Kenta (Great in 2020). The reason I lean towards the coaches is so many batters are having almost career low numbers. Miranda had a huge sophomore slump, Correa isn't showing any signs of getting to his norm, Vazquez hasn't been this bad since 2018, and both Kepler and Gallo are hitting under .200. To me, that's way too many players underperforming so putting the blame on the players feels like a stretch. They're the million dollar professionals but when that many continue to struggle, it feels like it's something more.

No doubt. Consistently getting the least out of your players talent is a Baldelli specialty.

Worst Twins manager in my lifetime. Not even close.

He trims wins from his team every season and will never be able to win a playoff game unless he has a 7-0 lead.

As I have told you before, Rocco and his horrid management and culture of meh costs the team 8-9 wins per year. Managers are very important. They can change lineups (at least when they are not simply putting the computer generated lineup out there as incompetent Rocco does or did until they players asked for normal, manager (human ) made lineup. I think people that understand human emotions well understand Rocco us a horrendous manager and he does daily harm to our chances to have a fun club to watch. The fo is another story. I personally may give them another year or two. However anyone who has seen Falvey interviewed knows he has no skill at human interaction. It makes Rocco's complete lack of understanding sports psychology a huge weakness. 

Rocco is the main reason the Twins get the least out of their talent. They have scored 44 more runs than they have given up and are a .500 team. They are horrendous in close games.

Currently their expected win losss is 50-39 so I may underestimate how many games per year Baldiball cost the Twins.

Getting the least out of your teams talent=Baldiball. Nauseating.

You and I will need to agree to disagree.
