Twins turning to 2013

08:17 AM ET 09.03 | Winning a series a month, which is about the Twins' pace of late, is no way to win a division. [By] sweeping Saturday's doubleheader, they still were able to win two of the three games at Kaufman Stadium -- their first winning series since taking two of three at Cleveland Aug. 6-8. Momentum, eureka! ... Twins General Manager Terry Ryan was asked about embracing the spoiler role this month, and he sounded like he was more concerned about identifying who deserves a shot to make the roster next season. "It's not a good position to be in," Ryan said. "That's not what we wanted to do in September. No one wants to be in a predicament like we're in, playing a spoiler. We've got some things to accomplish, and taking some looks at these guys."

The Twins are irrelevant until they get two or three starting pitchers.

i don't know what in reality is wrong with the twins perception, they can't hit can't win a conssistent games can't pitch a decent game without blowing the game away, can't even promise anything because likely can't achieve any goals, who you are going to blame? the rats from the drainers? or the squerrells from the cards stadium?? my guess is, the twins need to change either their manager or their own name!!!
