  1. Let us not forget the collapse in 2022. Oh, but so many injuries! Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice...
  2. Closed door or players' only meetings usually come with a bit of fanfare and media hype. Remember when the Twins had one in April? IIRC, they had one last season after they got swept in Atlanta. Notice how there wasn't one in August or September? Season completely going off the rails and no one felt the need to stand up and try to patch it together. The players know what they have in the dugout. They're done.
  3. After that collapse in Texas - about 6 weeks ago now - I knew what was coming. It's been a total collapse since that point and it begins and ends with the manager.
  4. This team quit on its manager a while ago. This is their send off to Rocco.
  5. See ya, Rocco. Popkins. Maki. Watkins. Falvey. Lavine. Can't fire the owners unfortunately. But these guys are just as much to blame for this. A disgrace.
  6. Has anyone in the media ever asked Rocco about his Margot obsession?
  7. Anyone still want to bring Popkins back?
  8. Is Ronny Henriquez actually good...
  9. Very true but Rocco compounds mistakes.
  10. Not so sure it's Rocco checking out as much as this is his personality. He was at the helm in an epic collapse in September '22 and he's back at this year. Doesn't have that rah-rah nature that's going to rally the troops. Sometimes you need a manager that is going to give a kick in the pants. Rocco isn't it.
  11. I'd love to pick the brain of the geniuses that decided the Twins were going to try to hit homeruns like the 1927 Yankees...without having a legitimate HR hitter on the roster.
  12. This. The excuses being trotted out for this team are kind of mind boggling.
  13. Oh, speaking of the Guards... I don't like disrespecting an opponent and they did it throughout that series. You don't have to show anyone up. First time the Twins play them in 2025, I'd like Gimenez to get a bit of chin music. Send some type of message.
  14. Guards are the prime example of how a manager can make a difference. Look at where they were last year and compare it to this season. And that's with ownership that is worse than the Joe P. when it comes to spending money...and that's with injuries to their rotation. Rocco needs to go. Up to Joe to make it happen.
  15. Twins ready to make Mr. Fitts look like Dwight Gooden circa 1985.
  16. Two pretty epic collapses in the last three years. Hmmmm...
  17. Hungry for word salad and pointing fingers at everyone else?
  18. You have one of the better clutch post-season players in recent history on the team and even he's caught in the wash with this group. The Twins are their manager. There's no fight.
