Riverbrian Old-Timey Member Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 1,000 Wins is a decent benchmark for a Manager. I think it matters to him. Is he going to walk away from this club at 998 Wins. Would you want to manage this long and finish just shy of 1,000 wins. He needs 14 Wins in the remaining 39 games. In my opinion this will be very close if the team doesn't get on a decent roll. The rotation is starting to groan from the weight of it all. Terry Ryan said that the decision on Gardy for 2014 will be based on the clubs improvement. I appreciate the many years of Gardy leading our club but I don't think the team has demonstrated improvement this year. Will Gardy reach 1,000 Wins as Twins Manager? I think he has to do it this year.
Mr. Brooks Verified Member Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 I predicted before the season that he would finish the year with 999, so I'll stick with that.I think he'll be here next year unless he wants to leave.
Kwak Verified Member Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 I think he voluntarily walks away.
Mr. Brooks Verified Member Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 I think he voluntarily walks away. Maybe, but he was pretty adamant that he would be doing no such thing when asked about it on 1500.
drjim Provisional Member Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 Maybe, but he was pretty adamant that he would be doing no such thing when asked about it on 1500. I thought tjay was a reference to in season not end of season.
Mr. Brooks Verified Member Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 I thought tjay was a reference to in season not end of season. Oh, you might be right about that. I can't recall for sure.
Halsey Hall Verified Member Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 I hope he reaches the 1000 mark, but it's gonna be touch and go.
beckmt Verified Member Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 At the going rate Gardy probably will not make it. September should be harder than August and Twins are not doing well in the part of the schedule, they had a chance to make ground in. Do not know if his record merits a reup as team without changes seems to be fading.
Rick Blaine Verified Member Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 I hope he reaches the 1000 mark, but it's gonna be touch and go. My bet is that he gets his 1000 win-- but it will be in April. (not necessarily April 2014 or as Twins manager)
Gernzy Verified Member Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 I think he'll get there this season. It will be close though.
E. Andrew Provisional Member Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 Know what happened to Charlie Manuel at 1000 wins?...
