You believed in that saying huh? The baseball you described, is losing baseball. The game has changed in the last 15 years. Strikeouts, productive at bats, on base skills, and extra base hits win games. The media in Minnesota has been called the twins media machine for a reason. The product you see on the field isn't a surprise. All these guys with the exception of park, are who they are. I don't think many expected this team to be this bad, but i don't think it is a huge revelation either.
