The Minnesota Twins had a chance to bury the season of the Cleveland Guardians, but it's the Guardians who take 2 of 3 from the Twins at Target Field. Andrew "Hoges" Hoganson fills in for Dan and the boys discuss the crazy events of game 1 including the debut of Twins reliever Cody Funderburk. Hoges can't stop gushing about Royce Lewis (Rirby Luckett) while David has some choice words for Rocco regarding his decision at the end of game 3. The boys breakdown Duran's disastrerous outing in game 3, including the poor umpiring that inevitably led to a Twins loss. Hoges wants to know who the Twins should want to play in the postseason, while David wants to know what expectations Twins fans ought to have for Byron Buxton's return from the IL, and more importantly, his return to playing centerfield. The boys talk through the crazy moves made by the LA Angels and reflect upon Josh Donaldson's time with the Twins. The boys finish off playing a sad game of would you rather and they make their picks for the upcoming Rangers series. Thanks for listening, and as always, go Twins.
