The Minnesota Twins announced on Monday that they have fired manager Rocco Baldelli after a seven-year tenure as the skipper. Baldelli led the Twins to three American League Central titles, but he got the axe after a second straight disappointing season. Minnesota traded 10 players at the July 31 trade deadline to cut $26 million from the payroll. After the All-Star break, they went 23-43 to finish last in the division with a 70-92 record. Only the Colorado Rockies were worse than the Twins after the trade deadline. Minnesota finished the season with the worst record in the American League and its worst record since 2016, when they went 59-103. Baldelli won the 2019 American League Manager of the Year award and went 527-505 in his seven seasons at the helm. He's the third-winningest manager in Twins history behind Tom Kelly and Ron Gardenhire.--Keith HernandezRead More News
