Today Baseball died in the twin cities as the Minnesota Twins started August playing like they were in Antarctica going 4-6 (2-4 on the road, 2-2 at home) and falling back to 11 games behind the division leader (4th place) and 10.5 games behind in the Wild Card (7th place). Many culprits can be named and some will be dealt with harshly at Twins HQ (professionally not literal).

Those Culprits are not limited to but include...
Pete LaForest... hitting is down to .214. will be replaced by Javier Hernandez.
Jamie Cerda... ERA over 10 in the last month will be relegated to mopup/low mid relief
Donald Degroat... Boy Wonder last year has turned into Boy Blunder with an ERA over 5.
Josh Johnson... 5.52 ERA as a starter.
Alex Morabito.... hitting .241 for the year should be much higher than that going to try one more lineup with him.
Jose Morales... batting average has dipped majorly since a fast start.

Solutions may not be many successful ones but I will try none the less.

Greg Nash has really filled into the DH role great, with a .320 average and good power
Stumm has come back from his injury with 3 straight wins
