Surely, after all that, picking something as simple as whether or not a team is going to be any good should not be so hard, right? For some, yes. And those folks are getting free Harry's Razor Sets.

The other league's MVP race is a little more open-ended which can lead to quite the debate. Should the MVP go to the league's best player even if he's on a bad team? Or should the MVP be on a team that was in contenti...5131Tue, 04 Oct 2016 03:30:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/twins-daily-awards-2016-most-improved-player-r5130/The Twins season is over, mercifully. However, that also means that it is time to hand out some Major League Awards. Last month, we gave out five Minor League awards. Over the next four days, we’ll hand out four Major League Awards.

The 33-year-old Derek Falvey, a Terry Francona-proclaimed “rising star” in Cleveland’s front office, will as...5128Mon, 03 Oct 2016 15:35:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/twins-pitchers-need-a-new-voice-r5127/The Twins have made it clear that they intend to keep manager Paul Molitor around for one more try after leading his team to a record 103 losses. His coaching staff, however, may not be so safe. Neil Allen, in particular, looks like an obvious candidate for replacement. I'm generally not one to b...5127Mon, 03 Oct 2016 03:26:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/gleeman-amp-the-geek-ep-279-the-derek-falvey-era-r5126/Aaron and John talk about the Twins hiring Indians assistant general manager Derek Falvey to replace Terry Ryan, Byron Buxton's monster September, drinking beer and talking Red Sox at Fair State Brewing, guest Brandi Brown on stand-up comedy and being anti-baseball, and the worst season in Twins h...5126Mon, 03 Oct 2016 02:15:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/10333-r5124/On Friday night, the Minnesota Twins lost to the Chicago White Sox. The loss was their 103rd of the season, “besting” their 102-loss season in 1982. So what do you think? Is this the worst team in Minnesota Twins history? I mean, if you go by record alone, then the answer became “Yes” on Friday ni...5124Sat, 01 Oct 2016 20:46:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/game-thread-twins-white-sox-930-710pm-ct-r5123/To steal a line from Kenny Loggins… “This is it.” All good things must come to an end…. umm… and all bad things must come to an end as well. The final series of the season starts tonight in Chicago as the Twins and White Sox battle it out to the finish the season.

Nothing but road games left on the schedule. No more games are scheduled for Target Field in 2016. If you have plans to attend a game at Target Field this week… I’d come up with something else to do because the gates may be locked.
