| 2010-10-07 13:00:00 | I think the Reds may be screwed, but because they are facing 2 more pitchers nearly as good as Halladay...
How about the Twins? Are they ever going to be able to beat the Yankees in a playoff series?
(AutomatedTeller from Boston, MA) | I really believe the Twins are good enough to beat the Yankees and I picked them to win the series. That being said, I've got to believe the Yankees are in the Twins' heads, especially since they are now a remarkable 55-18 against Minnesota since Ron Gardenhire replaced Tom Kelly as manager. I'm not a big believer in emotion or momentum but the game is played by humans and we all have our doubts and fears. The Twins have to have both when they play the Yankees. (John Perrotto) |
| 2010-02-16 16:00:00 | I was fascinated in your article from a couple weeks ago that Tom Kelly and Gardy were 1-2 in worst at teaching walks and homers. Do you conjecture that this is explained by Gardy being TK's student, both of them being in the same organization, something about the ballpark, or just coincidence? Thanks
(collins from greenville nc) | If I were being a good research methods prof, I would say that it's coincidence until proven otherwise. But it sure does look suspicious that one was the disciple of the other. It may be something over-arching organizational. After all, players don't get promoted to the bigs in a vacuum and the Twins may have had that mold for a number of years. (Russell A. Carleton) |

| 2010-10-06 10:00:00 | 2010 Playoffs Day One | You didn't miss much, Marc. Between Gene Mauch and Tom Kelly there was a whole lot of forgettable. (Steven Goldman) |
| 2009-10-28 17:00:00 | 2009 WS Game One | Great point re: coaches, Will, but I think it's worth noting how very few pitching coaches ever get a shot at making the leap the way Bud Black has or Roger Craig did. As improbable as some interim selections seem at the time, however (cue Jaffe with a Moose Stubing anecdote), Tom Kelly was a surprise keeper from among the ranks of the improbable, nondescript lifer types.
