Maybe they spare Rocco and fire the pitching coach Maki instead? Turns out it's actually not easy getting passable results out of scrap heap pen arms.

Really would like them to keep Rocco, worst manager in the division in my opinion.

It's a good point, but I wonder what they could have really done this soon after the deadline.

Yeah the problems are higher up, I'm just assuming someone gets fired and it's not the GM.

A new coaching staff would certainly benefit them. Somebody "has to pay" but also do the owners want "to pay" for a new staff?

A little off subject, but I pulled out my World Series tshirt that had the backs of the uniforms for the 25 man roster. I had absolutely forgotten who the back up catcher was on that squad until I saw his name, probably because AJ played so much. Did anyone else have that memory dump?

Without looking it up, I was thinking that it might be Davidson,  the catcher we took back from Seattle in the Garcia trade.  But I'm not sure as I just don't remember a backup catcher at all that season.

And speaking of Davidson, I saw him at some point this season; he's on the broadcast crew of some team.

Exactly. Rocco had an option for next season that they already picked up. But he might want out at this point too so who knows.

Ben Davis, he wasn’t on the team. Casanova was third string I believe

Holy cow. I feel bad for Twins fans. They have two pitchers left after this guy, one with a 4.5 ERA the other with a 19 ERA. I think they just concede this one.

I probably just cursed Wikelman.
