In their first matchup of 2023 against the Cleveland Guardians the Minnesota Twins only managed one victory in the three-game set. The boys continue to be impressed by the starting rotation while being equally underwhelmed with the teams offensive production. David finally gets his inaugural win in Puckett's Picks and couldn't be happier about it, while Dan is excited that the Twins have continued their aggression on the basepaths. David walks through Rocco's ejection, and the boys try and sort out why Jose Miranda appeared to forget how to play 3rd base. The guys express their frustration at game one only being available on Apple TV, and what's worse, having Carlos Correa mic'd up during the game. Dan wants to know who should be sent down when Kyle Farmer is ready to return, and David is curious how high Alex "T-Rex" Kirilloff's ceiling may be if he manages to stay healthy. Thanks for listening, and as always, go Twins!
