Show Notes

The boys are back in studio for the 2024 Minnesota Twins season and discuss all the storylines as spring training begins for the team in Fort Meyers, Florida. Dan is still coming down from his Joe Mauer HoF election and the boys are excited about the Twins getting a city connect jersey this season. David is upset that the Twins front office failed to allow better streaming options for the fanbase, and further the team has no plans to increase their payroll even with a new TV contract in place. The guys discuss the Bobby Witt Jr. signing by the Kansas City Royals and Dan's hopes that the Twins bring back free agent Eddie Rosario. David and Dan talk through the Polanco and Gordon trades, along with the Santana and Jackson signings. Thanks for listening, and as always, go Twins!
