In one of the bigger surprises of a surprising season, the Minnesota Twins didn't just beat the Atlanta Braves in a series -- they swept them at Target Field. David, fresh off attending two of the games, is full of praise for manager Derek Shelton, for DH Josh Bell and for many more members of a team that is now alone in the third AL wild card position. Dan is still hung up on the absence of Walker Jenkins and the c...
After looking as if they might salvage a victory in this three-game series, the Minnesota Twins get swept by the Philadelphia Phillies: one game in Iowa and two more at Target Field. David, who was in Iowa for its state fair, sees the Minnesota State Fair as far better than what Iowa offered. Dan is convinced that he must make a trip to the Field of Dreams at some point, even if the Twins aren't playing there. Both ...
Playing at home for the first time in August, the Minnesota Twins took two of three games against the Baltimore Orioles, a fellow AL Wild Card contender. David mounts a defense of Alan Roden that frankly confuses Dan, who is ready to send Roden back to Triple-A to clear a roster spot for Byron Buxton. They are equally mixed on what to do with Kaelen Culpepper while being impressed with the play lately from Josh Bell...
After the Minnesota Twins took the first game in this three-game set against the Milwaukee Brewers, David and Dan found themselves wanting another victory.

It wasn't the outcome that might have been expected after the way the Minnesota Twins handled the MLB trade deadline, but the Twins do come away with one victory in Kansas City, and they still managed to keep pace in the AL Central. David and Dan discuss the close competition for playoff spots in the American League and how they think the Twins will figure in that as they head into a difficult stretch of opponents. ...
The Minnesota Twins lost two of three to the Seattle Mariners, both of them in walk-off fashion, ending a series that felt eerily like the Twins' last trip to Seattle -- and in a way, much like an inversion of their most recent series against the Kansas City Royals. Hoges fills in for the traveling David again to discuss the series with Dan, who was able to attend all three games in Seattle. Dan pins a lot of blame ...
Sandwiched around one of their most disappointing games of the season were two of the Minnesota Twins' most exciting ones, with walk-off hits from Royce Lewis and Kody Clemens giving them a series victory over the visiting Kansas City Royals. Andrew "Hoges" Hoganson fills in for David and raves about the walk-offs as well as the Twins' bullpen, which made both the victories possible. Dan stands pat with his feelings...
The Minnesota Twins took two of three from the visiting Athletics and gained a little ground on their AL Central Division rivals as the race tightens one week ahead of the trade deadline.

David praises the pitching staff's performance but questions Derek...

Despite the Minnesota Twins' series loss at the Chicago Cubs, David and Dan still have much to discuss. David is clear-minded and very upset about how Game 2 ended, even as he continues to support Luke Keaschall in all of his baseball tools. Dan insists on challenging David's ability to do simple math. They both like the way the bullpen has shaken out, and they discuss Major League Baseball's recent crackdown on iPa...
The Minnesota Twins win yet another series, their eighth over the last nine, and head into the All-Star Break one win under .500 at 48-49. David continues to defend Derek Shelton's creative use of Luke Keaschall, who had ups and downs during this series against the Los Angeles Angels. Dan is pleased with how Shelton handled the pitching staff and how he's basically helped this team become exactly what Dan thought it...
The Minnesota Twins win their seventh series in their last eight, giving David and Dan plenty to discuss after the Twins take two of three games against the rival Cleveland Guardians at Target Field. While David laments that the Twins didn't do more to win Game 3 and secure a sweep, he still really likes what he saw from Taj Bradley and wants the Twins to lock him into a long-term deal now. Dan is confused about wha...
With Dan back on the show and back in the country, he and David celebrate a Fourth of July weekend that includes a Minnesota Twins series victory at Yankee Stadium, where the Twins took two of three. Riding high after attending a St. Paul Saints game, David is riding high about not just the Triple-A squad but also the Big League one, and he wonders if it's time to go all-in on the Twins. Dan praises manager Derek Sh...
The Minnesota Twins take 2 of 3 on the road against the Houston Astros at Daikin Park. "The Chaos" Andrew "Hoges" Hoganson joins David for the last time during this stretch as Dan Thompson returns from Europe.

Hoges believers Caratini should be credited with earned runs after a big mistake in game 2, and both guys ...

The "Chaos" Andrew "Hoges" Hoganson once again fills in for Dan and the boys are in relatively high spirits following a series win against a terrible baseball team.

The Minnesota Twins are swept by the LA Dodgers at Target Field in Minneapolis. Andrew "Hoges" Hoganson fills is as Dan continues his world travels.

Hoges is getting fed up with Derek Shelton's managerial decisions, and David proposes switching ...
The Minnesota Twins take 2 of 3 from the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field in downtown Phoenix. Dan is still traveling the world so Andrew "Hoges" Hoganson joins David in studio.

In a series full of swings, the Minnesota Twins come away with a victory over the visiting St. Louis Cardinals, taking two of three at Target Field.

Dan is coming around to the ABS challenge system; David is wondering how long Justin Lawrence can...
Still short on starting pitching and still trying to put together a competitive bullpen, the Minnesota Twins lost two of three to the Tigers in Detroit, falling eight games under .500.

Dan is confused about why Mike Paredes doesn't get the official title as "spot starter," while Hoges ha...
