For the fifth time in eight seasons as their manager, Ron Gardenhire lead the Minnesota Twins to a division title, and for the second straight offseason, he's in the Peace Garden State.

By Nick N.(noreply@blogger.com) Results for this year's Manager of the Year voting were also announced this week, and on the AL side, Ron Gardenhire finished just behind winner Mike Scioscia to notch his fifth second-place finish in eight years as Twins manager (there's also a third-place finish mixed in there). When po...

By Aaron(noreply@blogger.com) One of the bonuses of trading for Hardy was seemingly that it would keep the Twins from re-signing Orlando Cabrera, but we may not be out of those woods quite yet. Sid Hartman's latest column quotes Gardenhire as saying that he'd still like to bring Cabrera back to play second base, with Nick...

By Aaron(noreply@blogger.com) In fact, UZR pegged Cabrera as 15 runs below average this season. He's rated well defensively in the past, but Cabrera is 35 years old and looked bad enough following the trade that Ron Gardenhire even admitted his range was lacking. Average offensively and well below average defensively i...

By Aaron(noreply@blogger.com) With the Yankees up 4-2 manager Ron Gardenhire gave Duensing a quick hook, pulling the southpaw with two outs despite left-hander Hideki Matsui coming to the plate. Duensing held left-handed batters to just .244/.311/.268 this season, but Gardenhire chose to bring in fellow southpaw Fran...

3B Joe Crede's season is over because of a bad back, Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said Monday. Crede was put on the disabled Aug. 28 and had two cortisone shots to loosen his back. He was activated Sept. 8 and has had five at-bats since, all strikeouts -- four as the designated hitter in Sunday's 8...

By Aaron(noreply@blogger.com) Prior to the Cabrera trade shortstop was split evenly between Punto (54 starts) and Harris (49 starts). In theory Cabrera's arrival allowed the Twins to shift Harris to second base and make Punto a backup, but because Ron Gardenhire is uncomfortable with Harris' defense there what we get...

By Aaron(noreply@blogger.com) Bringing in Cabrera at shortstop and moving Punto to second base while using Harris primarily at third base and sending Alexi Casilla back to Rochester would probably make the Twins slightly better and would definitely make Gardenhire think that the Twins were significantly better. Ho...

By Tyler Mason / MLB.com MINNEAPOLIS -- Minnesota manager Ron Gardenhire said former third baseman Corey Koskie "gripped being a Twins player as well as anybody." So it was only fitting that the recently retired Koskie received a hero's welcome at the ...

By Nick N.(noreply@blogger.com) Ah, how things have changed. It seems that the Ron Gardenhire of 2006 -- the one who cut Jason Bartlett in favor of Juan Castro -- would have almost certainly opted for the punchless defensive specialist in this situation. But clearly Gardy’s methods have changed, otherwise we’d see the Twi...

By Nick N.(noreply@blogger.com) Speaking of Young, his success should give us an interesting peek into how much weight Ron Gardenhire puts into spring training performances.

By Ian Casselberry The Minneapolis Star-Tribune's Twins beat writer, LaVelle E. Neal III, points out that the team has been enamored with the idea of a knuckleballer on its staff for quite some time. I know Twins manager Ron Gardenhire has proposed trying to teach a struggling prospect in the low minors a knuc...

By noreply@blogger.com (Nick N.) As expected, the Twins announced last week that manager Ron Gardenhire had been handed a two-year extension which will keep him as the Minnesota skipper through the 2011 season. There are plenty out there who aren't particularly fond of Gardy as the Twins' manager, but I'm a results-base...

By Leslie Monteiro Gardenhire could have used Perkins in the next inning to figure himself out, but he wasn’t going to make the same mistake again. At Safeco Field, Perkins got lit up when Seattle were making a rally, and when Perkins pitched the next inning, the Mariners got to him. The Twins eventually went on...

By Leslie Monteiro Now, everyone is in love with Denard Span. Ron Gardenhire certainly did as he was gushing about him in his press conference after the game on Wednesday afternoon. Span’s contributions gave the Twins a 7-3 victory over the Mariners as the Twins avoided a sweep from a last-place team.

By noreply@blogger.com (Nick M.) With that, I now wake up roundly disappointed. The Twins offense did their job against mediocre pitching, but the Twins pitching did not. I'm afraid that, the way things look right now, it will be hard to look back on this game without thinking that Ron Gardenhire once again made the mistake o...

By Leslie Monteiro Ron Gardenhire often gets called out for not being a good strategist. With that said, he is well-respected as a baseball manager because he knows how to motivate his team.

Then, Ron Gardenhire had a talk with the team at Milwaukee, which came after the Twins starters had a conference with Joe Mauer and Twins pit...

By Leslie Monteiro Gardenhire should know better. Ramirez may be struggling, but he is dangerous every time he has a bat at the plate. After what he did to the Twins in this series, Gardenhire probably learned his lesson about asking how the Red Sox is hitting these days.

By Leslie Monteiro This was as dumb as Rangers manager Ron Washington using Warner Mardigal in a major-league debut by pitching in a crucial spot at Yankee Stadium last week. Mardigal did not fare very well when he was pitching in that game as the Yankees lit him up, and as a result, the Yankees won.

By Nick N.(noreply@blogger.com) The litany of lost runners on the basepaths somewhat masks the fact that the Twins had a pretty good night against left-handed starter Nate Robertson, which is not insignificant. With Michael Cuddyer already on the disabled list, Ron Gardenhire elected to bench two of his other prominen...
