After This Season, Should The Twins Keep Gardy?

It’s been a really tough year for the Minnesota Twins—again.

After Wednesday’s game, the team’s record was 65-86. Manager Ron Gardenhire’s contract ends after this season. 

A Star Tribune article speculates on whether or not the Twins will present him with a new contract. What do you think?
