    Let's Just Go Home (Pirates Series Recap, 5/29-5/31)

    Send us Fan Mail 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 make their way to the Majors. There were positive performances for sure (by Brooks Lee and Kody Clemens), but the struggles were many in this series. They both try to stay a little bit optimistic. After all, there are still four months of baseball. Thanks for listening, and go Twins! The Gran Group with Edina Realty TWIN CITIES AREA REALTORS TO MEET ALL OF YOUR HOUSING NEEDS!

    Buying into the Neuroses of Royce Lewis (White Sox Series Recap, 5/25-5/28)

    Send us Fan Mail 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 True Father Figure of the Bullpen (Red Sox Series Recap, 5/22-5/24)

    Send us Fan Mail 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 questions about how this lineup continues to produce, and Dan wonders just how good this bullpen could end up being. They also address the Royce Lewis dilemma after the first-overall pick excelled during his first weekend back at Triple-A. Thanks for listening, and go Twins!

    Just Give the Fans What They Want (Twins-Astros Series Recap, 5/18-5/20)

    Send us Fan Mail 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 curious how Shelton will handle SWR moving forward. David wants to know what Hoges needs to see for the Twins to recall Royce Lewis, and Hoges expresses his frustration with the Twins recent roster moves.

    Making a Name for All the Wrong Reasons (Brewers Series Recap, 5/15-5/17)

    Send us Fan Mail 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 veterans this year, and David has lots to say about being amid the pro-Brewers crowd at Game 1.

    Bailey Ober’s Book on Parenting (Marlins Series Recap, 5/12-5/14)

    Send us Fan Mail 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 the decision to demote Matt Wallner. Dan is still waiting for Kaelen Culpepper's call-up, even as he continues to see Royce Lewis through rose-colored glasses. Thanks for listening, and go Twins!

    Good Relievers Do Grow on Trees (Guardians Series Recap, 5/8-5/10)

    Send us Fan Mail 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!

    The Kody Clemens Rule (Nationals Series Recap, 5/5-5/7)

    Send us Fan Mail 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.
