Rick Hoffman

Is Rocco solely to blame for the Twins failures? No. But is that really the standard we are shooting for in a manager? That is certainly not the standard in other places that have had greater success. He has had more than his share of head scratching lineup choices and pitching decisions, but for me it comes down to two things. First, the fact that too many of our young hitting prospects have flamed out when they got to the big leagues (changing hitting coaches hasn't changed that). Second, how many times have his teams overachieved and how many times have they underachieved? If you answer that honestly, I don't see how you avoid the conclusion it is time for a change. We should want a manager who can help elevate the team to greater success, not one who isn't the only reason they fail.
