I've been wondering why no one is wearing a #10 jersey since Tom Kelly. Is it because no one is interested or planning to retire that number? I don't really think it would ever gotten retired any time soon.

That's a good question. If they were to retire it...I guess they would have reason to. He had the 2nd longest tenure as a Twins manager. He did win 2 World Series titles with the club. However, he only had a .478 win percentage.

Or no one could like the #10. Who knows.

Yeah, 2 WS first came across my mind but then he don't have great record overall later on.

Span wore #10 in spring training a few years ago before changing to #2.

According to the media guide, no one has worn the # since TK retired.
