Countin' on a Miracle

Is this team going to hit enough?
That's the question that has been asked about the Twins ever since they regained their relevance as a sports franchise.
Everyone always talks about how pitching wins out in the end, and the Twins do have a ridiculously low 3.37 TEAM ERA right now.
Between the years of 1993 and 2000 the Twins didn't have ONE pitcher with enough innings to qualify record an ERA lower than that.
But the Twins pitchers, as great as they are, don't have a history of dominating, so even though pitching usually decides the playoffs, I wouldn't necessarily bet the farm that the Twins are going to win a bunch of 3-2 games against a quality opponent.
The Twins will need to hit, and they'll need to hit better.
But can they?
I want to say yes, because the team keeps talking about how great their hitters are going to be, but my unbiased, objective self says that no, the Twins will not hit enough with guys like Cuddyer, Castro, LeCroy, whoever's playing 2B, etc., eating up at-bats.
Right now Torii Hunter is carrying the lineup singlehandedly, but everyone knows there are too many holes in his swing, too many ways to get him out, for him to continue at this pace.
Torii will likely end up hitting .260 with 25 homers and 100 RBI. Fine numbers, but not enough to carry the team by himself.
If the Twins would bat Morneau ahead of Torii (or even behind him) while he's hot, it might be a good way to jumpstart Morneau's lukewarm bat, but Gardy doesn't think things through that deeply. Batting the Twins best power hitter sixth is serving no real purpose other than to punish him. I suppose it's Gardy's way of 'challenging' him, but batting Torii and Jacque 4-5 in front of him seems stupid. Batting Cuddyer behind him in the 7 hole accomplishes nothing. It basically gives pitchers no reason to pitch to Morneau.
The only real way to make this lineup work is for Mauer and Morneau to step it up. If they hit .300 with some pop it'll make everyone better. It might seem unfair to ask a 22 and 24 year old to do the heavy lifting on a team with World Series aspirations, but hey, the Twins said they could do it.
Let's see it.
