August 19, 201313 yr 1,000 Wins is a decent benchmark for a Manager. I think it matters to him. Is he going to walk away from this club at 998 Wins. Would you want to manage this long and finish just shy of 1,000 wins. He needs 14 Wins in the remaining 39 games. In my opinion this will be very close if the team doesn't get on a decent roll. The rotation is starting to groan from the weight of it all. Terry Ryan said that the decision on Gardy for 2014 will be based on the clubs improvement. I appreciate the many years of Gardy leading our club but I don't think the team has demonstrated improvement this year. Will Gardy reach 1,000 Wins as Twins Manager? I think he has to do it this year. Edited August 19, 201313 yr by Riverbrian
August 19, 201313 yr I predicted before the season that he would finish the year with 999, so I'll stick with that.I think he'll be here next year unless he wants to leave.
August 19, 201313 yr I think he voluntarily walks away. Maybe, but he was pretty adamant that he would be doing no such thing when asked about it on 1500.
August 19, 201313 yr Maybe, but he was pretty adamant that he would be doing no such thing when asked about it on 1500. I thought tjay was a reference to in season not end of season.
August 19, 201313 yr I thought tjay was a reference to in season not end of season. Oh, you might be right about that. I can't recall for sure.
August 19, 201313 yr At the going rate Gardy probably will not make it. September should be harder than August and Twins are not doing well in the part of the schedule, they had a chance to make ground in. Do not know if his record merits a reup as team without changes seems to be fading.
August 20, 201313 yr I hope he reaches the 1000 mark, but it's gonna be touch and go. My bet is that he gets his 1000 win-- but it will be in April. (not necessarily April 2014 or as Twins manager)
