On September 29, 2025, the Minnesota Twins announced the firing of manager Rocco Baldelli, ending his 7-year tenure with the team. Baldelli's dismissal comes after a second straight disappointing season for the Twins, who finished with a 70-92 record, the 4th-worst in Major League Baseball.
The Twins faltered in June and failed to mount any momentum in July, leading to a major selloff at the trade deadline. The team went 19-35 after the deadline, with only the Colorado Rockies faring worse over the final two months. This extended funk has seen the Twins go just 82-119 over their last 201 games, a .408 winning percentage.
