Wilderness Walk: Professional GMing

WHAT THE HELL TWINS?!?! In a surprise move, the beloved Minnesota Twins fired their long time general manager Terry Ryan yesterday. It was a surprise not in that the Twins need a new direction in the worst way and sometimes even the nicest of guys get the axe. No, it was that Owner Jim Pohlad was making the move and making it in middle of the season.

It's not the modus operandi that we've all come to know, love, and loathe about the Twins franchise. Though, I couldn't help feel that Pohlad might as well have been Ramsay Bolton and the new GM was Theon Greyjoy turned Reek with the announcement that Paul Molitor will be the manager next season.
