MN for the Win - A Minnesota Twins Podcast
When in Doubt, Don't Swing (Tigers Series Recap, 8/8-10)
The Minnesota Twins play a stinker of a series, and David is back on the podcast with plenty of firepower. He has a couple questions for Rocco Baldelli, and he also offers his thoughts on the career of new Twins Hall of Famer Joe Mauer. Dan offers further defense of the Twins' great, and he also defends the changes he made to his grading rubric. They discuss the shortcomings of the offense and bullpen in particular that contributed to Minnesota's losing three of four to the Detroit Tigers, and they wonder who, if anyone, can infuse this offense with some life and this team with some hope. They also look around at many headlines from Major League Baseball, including a friendly bet between brothers that might not have been the smartest idea. Thanks for listening, and go Twins.
