The Chicken and the Egg (2025 Postseason No. 1)

Send us a text

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 than Baldelli's. And, as they generally agree: The recent stories about the Pohlads only add to the narrative that the family is not in it to win it. All three also offer their predictions for the 2025 postseason, with Dan following his heart, David following his head, and Hoges following something in between. Thanks for listening, and go Twins!
