The Pohlad family have announced their intention to sell the Minnesota Twins, the team has a new streaming deal in place for 2025, and the front office makes some coaching changes to the Twins staff. With so much happening in Twins Territory the boys couldn't stay away. David, Dan, and Andrew "Hoges" Hoganson discuss all of the big news coming from Target Field. David wants an owner who's willing to bankrupt themselves to win a World Series, while Dan and Hoges take a more reasonable approach. The guys discuss the history of the Pohlad family and the terrible interviews and statements made over the course of the last two seasons leading up to this decision. David can't hide his love for Peter Alonso as he talks about the Mets advancing to the NLCS, while Dan tries his best to keep his love for Aaron Judge in check. The boys finish up by giving their preferred World Series matchups. Thanks for listening, and as always, go Twins!

The Minnesota Twins were swept by the Baltimore Orioles at Target Field, and were officially eliminated from the playoffs. David and Dan recap the miserable series and dive into all the breaking news regarding Rocco Baldelli retaining his position as manager, and Derek Falvey also staying on board in the front office. The boys discuss the Twins removing a fan from the stadium who held up signs criticizing ownership, and talk through some of the quotes from Correa and others about the disappointing end to the season. Dan wants to know how the Twins will replace Kepler in right field, while David takes issue with the position held by some that the Twins weren't that good to begin with so ownership not spending money was the right move last offseason and at the trade deadline. The boys finish up looking at the crazy NL Wildcard race and offer a heartfelt thank you to the loyal listeners this season. Thanks for listening, and as always, go Twins!

It's another disappointing series loss from the Minnesota Twins, who dropped two of three at home to the 100-loss Miami Marlins. David and Dan mourn the nearly certain end of any playoff hopes this team has, now that its path to the postseason is as narrow as it gets. David praises the play of Carlos Correa, and Dan hypes the Byron Buxton train (or is it a truck?), but they have plenty of questions for the rest of the roster after such a crucial series went awry. Still, they struggle to see exactly what Rocco Baldelli could have done differently to steer this ship better even a month ago. They have plenty to say about the final game in Oakland for the Athletics franchise, and they look a bit around the league as it heads into the final weekend of the regular season. Thanks for listening, and go Twins!
