Send us a text Coming out of the All-Star Break, the Minnesota Twins give Colorado Rockies fans something of a surprise: a series victory for the Coors Field faithful. It's a disappointing series for the Twins, who fall three games under .500 and waste a chance to do better following what was an exciting pair of performances by Byron Buxton and Joe Ryan in Atlanta earlier in the week. David wonders whether Ryan has reached legitimate ace status, while Dan is eager to see the Twins shake up th...

David wants to know if Joe Ryan can say that he outpitched Paul Skenes, while Dan wonders what Twins fans need to ...

Dan feels like it's time for Rocco to let SWR see a lineup a third time through, and David has decided the Twins should keep Harrison Bader for 2026. David thinks MLB players should wear cameras so fans could watch at-bats from their perspective, while Dan argues that's asking too much. Th...

Send us a text The Minnesota Twins take 2 of 3 from Tampa Bay Rays at Target Field in Minneapolis. Dan has an interesting dream about Joe Mauer, and David tries his best to interpret it. Byron Buxton is living his dream as he'll be playing in Atlanta as an All-Star. Dan appreciates Rocco's versatility in his use of pinch hitters and runners throughout the series, while David is furious Rocco didn't let Louis Varland pitch the 10th in game 3. Dan wants to know if this team is good again, while...

Send us a text The Minnesota Twins manage just one victory in three games in Miami, much to the consternation of David and Dan, who are frustrated by the inconsistency of this offense -- and are also resigned to the fact that this team as constructed just isn't a playoff-ready team. That said, David is pleased with Rocco Baldelli's management of David Festa but is still ready to jettison many players on expiring contracts. Dan is wise to Rocco's roster management and is also eager to invite a...

Send us a text David and Dan are somewhat surprised to say that the Minnesota Twins took a game from the first-place Detroit Tigers, who looked every bit the part in this three-game series at Comerica Park. David is happy to see that the Twins took the first game and looked so good in doing so. Dan has a plan that would ensure Byron Buxton gets his rightful start in the All-Star Game. Both of them are underwhelmed by the Twins' catching tandem, and neither is totally confident that Rocco Bald...

Send us a text The Minnesota Twins lose two and win two against the visiting Seattle Mariners, giving David and Dan some hope that this year's team, now halfway through the season, isn't without hope. They critique the performances by all four starting pitchers and question the choices of manager Rocco Baldelli more than the decisions by Mariners skipper Dan Wilson. Both of them look toward the trade deadline and find little reason at this point to trade key assets. Still, they see lots to li...

Send us a text At home against the rival Brewers, the Minnesota Twins drop all three games over a weekend series at Target Field, continuing a tailspin that looks a whole lot like the one the team endured at the end of last season. David laments just how often we've watched Jonah Bride pitch, while Dan offers a theory as to why Jake Bauers pitched as poorly as he did for the Brewers in Game 1. Dan also has a two-faced reading of Brooks Lee's series, and David heaps the praise on the one Twins...

David adds to his case that Willi Castro errors are always mental, never physical, while Dan is upset at the MLB's rules about official games. David is curious if Bailey Ober's face on the mound is different than the face he uses when his children want his attention, and Dan wants to know if Rocco is up to the challenge to manage Ober and Paddack through their rough patches on the mound. David is...

They process the injuries to Royce Lewis and Byron Buxton, lamenting the absences as part of the wasted chance here that the Twins had to build back some momentum.

Andrew "Hoges" Hoganson fills in for David and helps Dan make sense of an up-and-down series that included a wonderful Game 2 victory and then two ugly blowout losses. Hoges heaps the praise on a "mature" Byron Buxton but wonders about the longevity of this battered starting rotation.

David and Dan discuss the role that dirt played in the series as well as the outspoken manner of Joe Ryan before jumping into the big question: How will the Twins fare without ace pitcher Pablo Lopez?

Dan talks with David about the experience of being there for such an exciting series, which from a neutral fan perspective would surely have been an excellent one to watch. They discuss the Twins' three ninth-inning comebacks, as well as the extra-inning flop in Game 2. David wonders where this fired-up version of Carlos Correa...

The Twins lose their first series since May 1st, and the guys discuss the lack of offensive production being the reason why the team dropped this series.

Send us a text The Minnesota Twins and Kansas City Royals played three games that came down to the final inning, with the Twins taking the first two and the Royals taking the last. The heroes for the Twins included a more likely candidate in Ty France, and one that was less so (but perhaps shouldn't be so unlikely) in Kody Clemens. David and Dan discuss those heroics as well as the fine management of Rocco Baldelli, whose chess acumen David would love to test. Dan is again let down by the per...

And that seemed just fine, considering how battered the Twins' lineup is now. David and Dan discuss the impact weather had on this series while seriously questioning how Rocco Baldelli handled it, while they also saw the ending to Game 1 as the most Minnesota ending a baseball game could have. They assess how the team is holding tog...
