The Minnesota Twins open their 10-game homestand in unremarkable fashion dropping 2 of 3 to the lowly Washington Nationals. David is baffled by Willi Castro's lack of hearing abilities, while Dan doesn't buy the cold-weather being the cause for Pablo Lopez's poor outing. David defends his take on Rocco causing the loss in game 1 after facing pushback on Twitter, and Dan tries his best to calm him down so the episode may continue. Dan wants to know when we'll see Buxton in the CF and David wants to know if Nick Gordon is on the chopping block. The guys discuss the Rays crazy start to the season, and the painful end to Drew Smyly's perfect game bid. Thanks for listening and as always, go Twins!
