The Weather Gets a 7 out of 10 (Royals Series Recap, 4/27-4/30)

Send us a text

The Minnesota Twins managed to take 3 of 4 games from the Royals at Target Field. David feels the Twins new home run celebration is a bit forced, and Dan wants to know how Salvador Perez has managed to continue his dominance of the Twins for all these years. The guys reflect on Zach Greinke's struggles against the Twins and his unfulfilled chase of a championship throughout his career. David continues his epic losing streak in Puckett's Picks and expresses his frustration at Polanco's non-HR, and Dan doesn't miss the chance to gloat. David wants Rocco to do something about all the stolen bases the Twins have given up, and Dan is starting to think maybe keeping Buxton out of CF for the long-term is what's best for the team as a whole. The boys finish up discussing the insane numbers Luis Arraez is putting up for the Marlins, and they also walk through the crazy box score from the Padres-Giants game played in Mexico City. Thanks for listening, and as always, go Twins!
