I go out with the guy for drinks on his birthday and send him golden blog fodder, then I get relegated to this: "... a buddy sent it to me ..." A "buddy?" That hurts, Joey. It hurts. Wow.

I go out with the guy for drinks on his birthday and send him golden blog fodder, then I get relegated to this:

“… a buddy sent it to me …”

A “buddy?”

That hurts, Joey. It hurts.

Then we can get John Gordon to be bench coach, or something, and get some fluid, accurate play-by-play announcers for radio games. Start with Jack Morris and build around him!

He is very knowledgable about baseball and has the decisivenss and toughness to get the best performance out of the players. Gardenhire is a poor manager because he always puts bench players in the lineup and has a habit of manipulating the Twins lineup for no good reason. Gardenhire doesn't instill the toughness in the players that is necessary to be competitive at the major league level. Gardenhire also is lazy and always makes excuses for the Twins losing. Dan Gladden could be one of the best managers in all of baseball. He is a natural leader and teacher of baseball. Also, when he played, he was a far better ballplayer than Gardenhire ever thought of being. GLADDEN FOR MANAGER OF THE TWINS IN 2009! I think Dan Gladden would be an excellent Manager of the Twins.

Maybe the Twins aren't nearly as good as they think they are. Gardenhire certainly doesn't help the team win games with his prolific use of second string players and constant shuffling of the lineup. He is a very confused manager who can't stand to have his A team playing regularly. Gardenhire would be a good minor league coach than a major league manager.

Mr. Gardenhire definately needs professional help with his anger management stemming from his frustration" Best case scenario. Gardy loses his temper and strangles Jack, before he writes another stupid post. Jack says:

I would have liked to see him with Tony O and Harmon swings, but it's a nice collection. For Knoblauch he needed to have batting gloves to do/undo about 20 times before each pitch. Thanks Joe.
