The Minnesota Twins sweep the Kansas City Royals in a three-game series at Target Field. David and Dan are reunited and discuss the great pitching performances by Joe Ryan and Sonny Gray, as well as the scoreless innings put together by the bullpen. The boys discuss Miranda's continued great play and Caleb Thielbar's effort in high leverage positions in games 1 and 2. David doesn't miss an opportunity to question Tommy Watkins base coaching and Dan remains head of the Nick Gordon fan club. Dan is befuddled by Rocco's limited use of Cole Sands, and wants to know if Sandy Leon is currently the best catcher on the Twins' roster. The guys consider the importance of the recently updated top 100 prospect list and make their Puckett's Picks for the upcoming Rangers series. Thanks for listening, and as always, go Twins!
