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. The guys discuss their issues with soccer, but also their joy in cheering on the USA in the World Cup. Hoges believers Caratini should be credited with earned runs after a big mistake in game 2, and both guys ...
The Minnesota Twins take 2 of 3 from the Colorado Rockies at Target Field. 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. David is annoyed with Derek Shelton's postgame press conference, while Hoges is still baffled by his bullpen decision making process. Hoges is curious when we'll see Kaelen Culpep...
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. The boys are disappointed, but not surprised at the results of the series, and were pleasantly surprised by how close the Twins came to stealing a game or two of the series. 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. The boys are thrilled with the Twins taking 2 of 3 on the road, and outside of some sloppy infield defense were impressed with the Twins offense and defense. Hoges is mad that Shelton won't let Fedko play a normal game of baseball, and bo...
The Minnesota Twins sweep the Texas Rangers at Globe Life in Arlington, Texas. Dan is traveling the world so David is joined by Andrew "Hoges" Hoganson. The boys are in high spirits after a surprising series sweep of the Rangers. David is still trying to figure out how good Kody Clemens is, and Hoges is mad at the Twins for in a way, causing the injury to Kaelen Culpepper preventing his callup to the big league club...
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. For the first time in a while, Byron Buxton had another star shining with him in Royce Lewis. David and Dan debate whether Royce is actually back or whether this is a blip. 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. That has Dan and Hoges thinking about what might happen in late July and whether Joe Ryan is winding down his time with the Twins. Dan is confused about why Mike Paredes doesn't get the official title as "spot starter," while Hoges ha...
The Minnesota Twins welcomed Royce Lewis back to the Major League lineup and still lose three of four at home to the Kansas City Royals, who gained two games on the Twins in the AL Central standings. Dan remains optimistic that the team is going to be in the hunt in September. David isn't so sure after this latest home stand. For the first time this season, David and Dan both have some in-game critiques for manager ...
While playing with a depleted starting rotation, the Minnesota Twins came home and won two of three against the Chicago White Sox, staying afloat in the middle of the AL Central Division and just a couple games back in the Wild Card. The bullpen continues to be in flux -- Kody Funderburk returned to St. Paul for some reason yet again -- but the Twins continue to find ways to mind the gaps. David wants to see the Twi...
A road trip that started with a sweep ends with a sweep, as the Minnesota Twins lose all three games to the Pittsburgh Pirates. David and Dan discuss the road back to .500, which looks like a difficult one considering all the pitching injuries and the strain on the depth of the starting rotation. David wants to know how the Twins are addressing all of the Pirates' stolen bases, while Dan wants to see more prospects ...
The Minnesota Twins drop 3 of 4 to the Chicago White Sox at Rate Field. Andrew "Hoges" Hoganson fills in for Dan Thompson and the boys talk about the rough series for the Twins after just sweeping the Boston Red Sox. Hoges thinks the Twins aren't being fair to SWR, and David wants to know when it's time to recall Royce Lewis. Hoges is optimistic about the Twins chances to return .500, while David is still skeptical....
The Minnesota Twins capped their most exciting series of the season with one last victory on Sunday to give them a sweep over the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park. David is still giddy having nearly fist pumped through his ceiling at the end of Game 3. Dan is a bit more measured -- after all, it's only the end of May. But the Twins are indeed sitting in playoff position, an unlikely spot to say the least. David has que...
The Minnesota Twins take 2 of 3 from the visiting Correa-less Houston Astros. The Twins lean on great starting pitching and do just enough offensively to take games 1 and 3. The boys discuss the starting pitching depth that continues to surprise as Zebby Matthews turns in another great outing. Hoges wants to know why Derek Shelton hasn't made more of an impact on the team compared with years previous, and David is c...
Despite getting some good pitching from the starters and the bullpen, the Minnesota Twins lost two of three at home to the border rival Milwaukee Brewers at Target Field. David and Dan both are struggling to understand the play of once-great Royce Lewis, but they appreciate the plays made by others, such as Connor Prielipp and Ryan Jeffers. Dan is curious if the Twins might be more willing to cut ties with one-year ...
For the second series in the row, the Minnesota Twins take two of three, this time against the visiting Miami Marlins at Target Field. Sandwiched around another poor start from SWR were two excellent starts (and wins) by Bailey Ober and Zebby Matthews, each of whom draw praise from Dan and David. David chronicles the letdown of an evening it was for Minnesota sports fans on Wednesday, but he's in complete support of...
In a season when it doesn't seem as likely to matter, the Minnesota Twins accomplished something rare this weekend in taking two of three games in Cleveland against the Guardians. Hoges joins Dan to discuss the series, which featured three close games and the Twins bullpen holding its own against the Guardians. Dan doesn't like the call to send down Kody Funderburk, and Hoges brainstorms some solutions for helping M...
After a promising Game 1, the Minnesota Twins lose a series at Nationals Park, making David's May 10 check-in date a doomed one: The Twins will not be at .500 when that day comes and goes. David offers his thoughts on that and asks for something of an amendment to it. Dan isn't so sure. Dan asks why it is that we were so wrong about Trevor Larnach and Matt Wallner, while David raises the question about why Royce Lew...
