OK, now Reusse is in on it

Just like Jim Souhan, his cohort at the Star Tribune, Patrick Reusse had something asinine to say about the Twins. In essence: The Twins are wimps.
Yes, Ron Gardenhire does have a tendency to protect his players, but as I've said time and time again, if he has any advantage, it's that he saves his younger players. The Twins have so much more talent than the rest of the AL Central that they should easily win the division, should they remain healthy. Aside from Justin Morneau's concussion, none of the significant players had a season ending injury this year. The Twins didn't lose to the Yankees because they were hurt, that's for sure.
