I’ve been wanting for awhile to write about the possibility that the Twins are cursed, so I actually did some work on this post. I talked to former Twins music director Kevin Dutcher, who was extremely gracious, and I emailed back and forth with a helpful urban forestry major at the ‘U’ namedJeff Carroll. I also got some help from the Twins and from the DNR in tracking down the location of the center field pine trees.

The result, then, is 2,500 words about the Twins potentially being cursed. It’s perfect All-Star Break reading, I like to think.
