I think we just have to accept that the Twins are a .500 team. If they get back a few players from IL they can be a better team. With good pitching anything can happen in a short playoff series.  If Lewis can come back and be a good player it will really help the Twins. The only bad news about the Twins being in the playoffs is that Rocco will be back for another year. I do not think the Twins will ever be a good team with Rocco as manager. He just doesn't appear to be a leader and seems to have no real feel for the game. He doesn't have his players move runners over so Twins hit into too many double plays.  At times he seems to have no clue on how to handle pitchers.

I've never thought this team was anything other than a .500 team.  They're almost exactly what I figured they'd be heading into the season.
