The Twins went from 78-84 to 100 wins. Baldelli was a first year manager. He was deserving.
I have to respectfully disagree EB.
Where would the Twinkies be if they had lost Berrios or Odorizzi? But they didn't and we had NO Severino all year.
Where would the they be if they had lost say Kapler or Rosario all year? They didn't, we lost Judge, Hicks, and Stanton - the latter two for most of the year.
What if they lost Schoop, Cron, or Rosario for more than 25 games this year? Well, they didn't, we lost Didi for 80 plus, Voit for 40 plus, Andujar for 140 plus, not too mention Sanchez for over 50 games.
Lets not forget we didn't have our All Star set up man Betances all year either.
I'm not saying you are wrong, all I am saying is when you look at it from another perspective, Boone got humped, and it certainly had to do with some yankee hating in the higher ranks of the voting. Boone is no hall of fame manager, far from it, but he did way more, with way less than Baldelli did, and won more regular season games, AND swept his ass in the ALDS.
