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 Matt Wallner out of his slump. They also check in David's May 10 proclamation and offer ideas on where the Twins will end up by September. Thanks for listening, and go Twins!

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 Lewis continues to say what he says to the media. Thanks for listening, and go Twins!

The Minnesota Twins host the Toronto Blue Jays at Target Field in Minneapolis. The boys are riding high following big playoff victories for the Minnesota Wild and Timberwolves, but the Twins have them far less excited. Dan has given up on Royce Lewis, while David wonders if Derek Shelton regrets taking the Twins job this offseason. The guys discuss how Shelton should build the lineup card, and worry about Byron Buxton waiving his no trade clause. Thanks for listening, and as always, go Twins
