The Gran Group with Edina Realty <...For as little as the Minnesota Twins roster has meaningfully changed this offseason, its front office and coaching staff has undergone substantial change. The latest move was the "mutual" departure of Derek Falvey, who had been with the organization for a decade, making key baseball decisions. Dan and Hoges discuss what can be made of the change and what it says about the frayed short-term future of the Twins, ...
As Major League Baseball's stars sign big contracts, and as the other 29 teams make efforts to improve their roster heading into the 2026 season, the Minnesota Twins have filled their offseason with signings that equate to visits to the Dollar Store. David and Dan recap what's gone on around the league over the last month and the parade of utility players who have signed with the Twins. The pieces, David argues...
The Minnesota Twins make their first move of consequence this offseason signing 1st Baseman Josh Bell to a one-year deal. David and Dan react to the news that the Twins will not be trading Pablo, Ryan, or Buxton and instead will try to add pieces around them to be competitive in 2025. The guys look around at all the big signings and trades around the league, and talk about the Twins new minority ownership partners and wh...
After wrapping up the 2025 season, David, Dan and Hoges look toward the offseason and the moves they would like to see the Minnesota Twins make before spring training. Dan praises the frugality of the Pohlad family, while David and Hoges would very much like to see the owners spend more money.

With the benefit of hindsight, David, Dan and Hoges discuss the 2025 Minnesota Twins baseball season, a year that was in so many ways a failure.

The choices of Derek Shelton for his coaching staff are falling into place just as new details from the latest sports betting scandal are coming to light out of Cleveland. David and Dan discuss both as they try to keep up with offseason news. Dan is skeptical about keeping Pete Maki as pitching coach, though David is more supportive. They both think the gambling is troubling, perhaps more troubling than any other form of...
The Minnesota Twins have hired Derek Shelton as their new manager. David and Dan offer their thoughts on his hiring, and whether or not this will lead to a better Twins team in years to come. Dan wants to know what makes Shelton think he'll have more success here as compared with Pittsburgh, while David thinks it may be time to strip the team down even further from a business perspective. The guys talk through the r...
Within a day of the end of the Minnesota Twins' season, manager Rocco Baldelli was fired and two articles were published about the Pohlad family. Somewhat surprised by both, David, Dan and Hoges recap each development. They are puzzled by the timing of the firing, even if it seems merited. They also offer up one former Twins player as a replacement candidate, though they'd prefer someone with a firmer approach ...
The Minnesota Twins drop 2 of 3 against the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park. After a long time apart David and Dan reunite to talk through the last series of the 2025 Minnesota Twins season. The Puckett's Picks season winner is revealed, and a new wager is on the table between the boys. Dan wants to know if the Twins should resign Vazquez, while David is curious why Joe Ryan would speak so highly of the ...
The Minnesota Twins take 2 of 3 from the Texas Rangers in Arlington. The boys are highly encouraged by the great starting pitching shown throughout the series, and David is starting to believe this team could find success if Joe Ryan and Pablo Lopez are on the team in 2026. Hoges wants to know if he'll be considered a fair "weathered" fan if he cancels his season tickets, and David wants to know if the cur...
The Minnesota Twins drop 3 of 4 to the Cleveland Guardians in their last home series at Target Field for 2025. Andrew "Hoges" Hoganson fills in for Dan and the boys start out with some NFL talk so David can tease Hoges about the Packers loss. Hoges wants to know if Rocco's job is still safe, while David wonders if he really wants to be here anyway at this point. Both David and Hoges make their final decisi...
Once again, the Minnesota Twins take the first game of a series and lose the next two, this time against the New York Yankees. Hoges joins Dan to discuss the set from Target Field, and Hoges expresses lots of feelings about his trip to Game 2. He also gripes about the frustrating way the Twins have been handling season ticket holders the last month or so as he grapples with whether he should re-up for next season. Dan wo...
With David on a scheduled off day and Hoges dealing with technical issues, Dan tries his best to speak out of both sides of his mouth as he dissects the Minnesota Twins' three-game series against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Target Field. Dan wonders whether Kody Clemens might be the answer at first base in 2026 and looks also at the play from the other Kody/Cody in this series. He's curious about Carson McCuske...
The Minnesota Twins helped to make Monday night wonderful for Minnesota sports fans, but after that they lost badly and then lost frustratingly to the Los Angeles Angels in Anaheim to drop another series. David is pleased with the performance in Game 1 and wonders what was inside Rocco Baldelli's mind in Game 2. Dan asks what the Twins are supposed to do next year with Eddie Julien, and both of the guys have a lot t...
The Minnesota Twins take one of three from the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium. The boys focus on the positives as Pablo Lopez returns from the IL, and Bailey Ober has a decent outing. Dan believes that Rocco has regained control of the team and has their respect, and David thinks that it's due to the removal of Carlos Correa from the clubhouse. The guys discuss the Phillies' Harrison Bader's contro...
This was certainly a low for the season and possibly for a span much longer than that, as the Minnesota Twins are swept by the Chicago White Sox in a four-game series in Minnesota for the first time ever. David and Dan identify a few nice performances but mostly see the bad bullpen and mediocre starting pitching, which cost the Twins against what is supposedly the worst team in the American League. David wonders what Roc...
The Minnesota Twins hosted the San Diego Padres for a three-game set at Target Field in Minneapolis. The guys come away with a different perspective on Taj Bradley, and appreciate Rocco's shift in management style since the trade deadline. David is still furious due to games being broadcast by 3rd party providers, and Dan has a relaxing trip for work to a very hot San Antonio. Thanks for listening, and as always, go...
