The Minnesota Twins made another trade Monday, acquiring CF Michael A. Taylor from the Kansas City Royals for relief prospects Steven Cruz and Evan Sisk. The Twins have made an effort to build depth on their roster for 2023, evidenced by their trade for Pablo López. Taylor leads all outfielders in Defensive Runs Saved since 2020 and joins an outfield group with Byron Buxton, Joey Gallo and Max Kepler. This outfield looks to be a special one defensively, with four to six viable options on the grass. What does this mean for Kepler? For the Twins outlook in 2023? Would I have done this trade?

The Minnesota Twins, after losing out on Carlos Correa, Carlos Rodón, Willson Contreras and a plethora of other free agents, recently inked outfielder Joey Gallo to a one-year, $11 million contract. It's a curious move for a team with an evident glut in left-handed corner bats. Gallo is coming off a very poor season with the Yankees and Dodgers and is hoping to rebuild his value. Why did the Twins make this move and what does it mean for the rest of the outfield, specifically Max Kepler? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Aaron and John talk about the Twins' payroll and spending room going into 2023, what to do with Gio Urshela and Max Kepler, watching the Yankees face non-Twins opponents in the playoffs, dropping players from the 40-man roster, and Carlos Correa dominating the Diamond Awards.

Max Kepler is one of the longest-tenured Minnesota Twins, playing 837 games and logging over 3,000 plate appearances with the club. Kepler has one more year left on his contract with an option for 2024. With young outfielders on the rise and Kepler's offense declining, it's probably time for the Twins to deal him. Who would he bring back in a trade? Is Kepler viewed as a net positive with his contract and production? Let's break it all down! Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Another blunder from Tommy Watkins did nothing to throw off the Minnesota Twins, who swept the Kansas City Royals for the third time this season, and it couldn't have been more crucial for the Twins' playoff hopes. David and Dan discuss the third base coach's gaffe and much more, including Joe Ryan's seven no-hit innings and Carlos Correa's series of big hits. David praises the work of the Twins' top two starters (Ryan and Sonny Gray), while Dan asks how much "better" Max Kepler will be next season when the shift is banned. They also discuss Roberto Clemente Day and the home run chases of Albert Pujols and Aaron Judge, and then they make their Puckett's Picks heading into a massive series against the Guardians in Cleveland.

Minnesota Twins CF Byron Buxton didn't think he was going on the injured list and was surprised; The Twins playoff hopes are in a free fall; Will the Twins make major changes to their brain trust; Why the Twins screwed up the Taylor Rogers trade and more scoops from Doogie; (32:00) Rocco Baldelli is at his wits end and held a team meeting after another loss to the Houston Astros; Where's the disconnect with starting pitchers and Rocco Baldelli; Old Tweets exposed on Max Kepler; And Why the Twins are so sensitive

The Minnesota Twins, despite a ninth inning rally, fell 4-2 to the Houston Astros in Tuesday's series opener at Minute Maid Park. Justin Verlander no-hit the Twins for six innings before the Twins put together multiple rallies in the late innings. José Miranda and Max Kepler each drove in runs in the ninth, but it wasn't enough. The Twins are 62-59. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Former Minnesota Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer ended up being right about a few things; Minnesota Vikings rookie class might contribute right away; Why there's only like 15 legit quarterbacks in the world; Peter King's observations from Vikings camp; The floor of the Vikings win total?; Can we ban handkerchiefs; (23:30) Should Minnesota Twins look under the hood at the front office and potentially make changes if they don't make the playoffs; Will Carlos Correa have a clutch moment; Dylan Bundy and Crhis Archer have delivered this season despite other narratives; Jose Miranda has turned his game around; Max Kepler has been unplayable; The Buffoon of the Week is MLB for telling us we can't challenge strikes

Introduction: You are forgiven if you had an impending sense of doom as the 9th inning unfolded for the Twins on Friday. After blowing Saturday's game against the lowly Angels, things were slipping away against the Royals. But this time, All-Star closer Jorge Lopez induced a huge double play to preserve a 4-2 win. Max Kepler had three hits, breaking a huge slump. And the scoreboard watching, which will be a feature of the rest of the season, continued. 8:00: Vikings writer Andrew Krammer joins host Michael Rand for a breakdown of Sunday's first preseason game. There was a lot to like, including a two-touchdown performance from QB Kellen Mond. Did Mond do enough to re-emerge in the backup QB race? Who else showed flashes? And what areas are still concerns as the preseason rolls on? 26:00: Rand takes note of a key pass rush stat that the Vikings will need to improve upon this season.

Minnesota Twins hold off the Royals behind Max Kepler breaking out of his funk; Will Joe Ryan develop secondary pitching; Will the Yankees fire Aaron Boone and more rants from Reusse.

The Minnesota Twins walked off the Milwaukee Brewers Wednesday on a three-run homer from José Miranda. Josh Hader walked Jorge Polanco to lead off the ninth, gave up a base hit to Max Kepler, and then served up a 1-0 slider to Miranda that reached the second deck. The Twins are 49-41 and host the Chicago White Sox this weekend. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Built Bar Built Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Lou Blasi and Brandon Kamerman look at baseball's biggest discrepancies between actual Batting Average and Expected Batting Average so this year and break down which way each players performance is expected to head. Players talked about in this episode include Max Kepler, Paul Goldschmidt, Andrew Vaughn, Christian Walker, and Corey Seager.

Dan Barreiro opens the show explaining why it's not "sad" that Max Kepler and the other unvaccinated Twins can't be with the team in Toronto before investigative reporter Gerald Posner joins to discuss a crisis he tried to report on over 30 years ago that has come to light recently.

Minnesota Twins place four players on restricted list: Max Kepler, Caleb Thielbar, Emilio Pagan and Trevor Megill. How ugly could things get in Toronto?

The Minnesota Twins split a doubleheader with the Detroit Tigers Tuesday. Devin Smeltzer was outstanding in game one, Cole Sands struggled early in game two, and the Twins offense showed up for only one of the affairs. Max Kepler had a fantastic day at the plate, while Gary Sánchez belted another homer and Trevor Larnach continued to drive in runs. That didn't continue in game two, when the Twins were shutout and failed to hit the ball hard. They are 30-21. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Ist Trevor Story bei den Red Sox endlich angekommen? Mit dem American League Spieler der Woche beginnen wir unsere Folge in der East Division. Die Yankees haben eine kleine negative Serie, wir reden aber eher über Aaron Judge und sein Wert für die Zukunft. Bei den Orioles hat es ein Blick in die Zukunft gegeben, ihr Top Prospect wurde in dieser Woche ins MLB Team berufen und schlug gleich im ersten Spiel ein Triple. in der AL Central hat Max Kepler weiter eine gute Phase, so wie sein ganzes Team. Die White Sox kommen langsam in die Gänge, es wird aber auch Zeit. Das Bild in der AL West ist wie in der Central deutlich: Enteilt sind die Astros und die Angels, danach fällt es schnell ab. Daher reden wir hauptsächlich über diese beiden Teams. Die National League East wird weiter von den Mets angeführt, danach wird es dann sofort negativ in der Bilanz der Teams. Wir schweifen ein wenig ab, weil wir uns den Zuschauerschnitt in der Liga anschauen. Zurück in der NL Central haben wir weiter nur zwei Teams, mit positiver Bilanz. In der NL West hat sich ein wenig die Spreu vom Weizen getrennt: die Dodgers und Padres sind nur ein halbes Spiel auseinander, 6 Spiele zurück folgen die Giants. Ist das schon eine Vorentscheidung? Wir huldigen Manny Machado, eine MVP reife Saison bisher von ihm. Die Dodgers sind aber weiterhin Team to Beat in der National League.

MLB – Major League Baseball Last Night Minnesota Twins 5, Detroit Tigers 4 Chicago Cubs 7, Cincinnati Reds 4 White Sox were off Twins 5, Tigers 4 – Kepler hits slam, Urshela and Twins walk off Tigers 5-4 Max Kepler hit an early grand slam, and Gio Urshela's infield single in the bottom of the ninth inning gave the Minnesota Twins a 5-4 victory over the Detroit Tigers. Urshela hit a grounder toward Tigers shortstop Javier Báez, who couldn't make a play. That allowed Kepler — who launched his slam in the first inning — to score the winning run. Emilio Pagan pitched two scoreless innings of relief to earn the win. Kepler opened the scoring with his third career slam, and the third of the year for the Twins. Cubs 7, Reds 4 – Happ, Wisdom hit 3-run HRs, Cubs top Aquino, Reds 7-4 Ian Happ and Patrick Wisdom hit three-run homers and the Chicago Cubs beat the Cincinnati Reds 7-4 despite two home runs by Aristides Aquino. Happ drove in Seiya Suzuki with a fourth-inning double before Wisdom hit his team-leading 10th homer. With Chicago holding a 4-3 lead with two outs in the seventh, Happ drove the first pitch he saw from reliever Luis Cessa into the right-field bleachers.

Donaldson also was fined an undisclosed amount. The punishment was announced Monday by Michael Hill, the senior vice president of on-field operations for MLB. Donaldson has elected to appeal the penalty. Shortly before the suspension was announced, the Yankees said Donaldson had been put on the COVID-19 injured list.

Minnesota Wild need to stay out of the penalty box and do the analytics suggest the Wild unlucky; Jordan Greenway taking a dumb penalty; Hockey commentarty is the wrost; Marc-Andre Fleury's shaky performance in Game 1; Lack of special teams success; Blues forcing the Wild out of their game and Jared Spurgeon somehow avoids a suspension!; (40:00) Seven things to love about Minnesota Twins pecking order of optimism!; The pitching has been superb; Byron Buxton still playing like an MVP!; Max Kepler has his swagger back; The Twins are better without Miguel Sano; Carlos Correa roaming around and top prospect Royce Lewis is hitting the cover off the ball.

Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse joins host Michael Rand as they tie a bow on the Wolves' season and look ahead to the Wild's playoff series starting Monday night against St. Louis. Reusse and Rand agree: The Wolves' backcourt is a concern, and if there's a way to move off of D'Angelo Russell this offseason the organization should pursue a trade. After a 46-win season and competitive playoff series, this appears to be a team on the rise, but even getting back to that point next season will be difficult. Reusse also calls this the best Wild team in franchise history and takes note of Max Kepler's resurgence with the Twins.

It was a big series for the Minnesota Twins and almost equally so for David, who revels in the success of Max Kepler as well as his Puckett's Pick, Carlos Correa. He and Dan discuss the Twins' second consecutive series sweep for the AL Central's leading team. They dive into the depth of the Minnesota lineup, which demonstrated its quality beyond its star, Byron Buxton. They also recap the play of the two pitchers the Twins received in the Taylor Rogers trade as well as the one they got in the Nelson Cruz deal (as it turns out, Joe Ryan might be quite good). Dan laments the play of Miguel Sano thus far, and they express hesitation over the potential of a pitch clock in the Majors anytime soon.

Ryan Jeffers homered, doubled and drove in three runs for the Twins, who won their sixth game in a row. Michael Pineda took the loss for Detroit. He gave up four runs, including all three Twins homers, in five innings against his former team. Ryan was dominant from the start, holding the Tigers hitless until Miguel Cabrera laced a single in the fourth. The right-hander walked just one batter and struck out nine, two shy of his career high. He extended his scoreless streak to 17 2/3 innings and lowered his ERA to 1.17. White Sox 7, Royals 3 – Vaughn homers as White Sox stop slide by topping Royals 7-3 Andrew Vaughn hit a tiebreaking three-run homer in the seventh inning, and the Chicago White Sox stopped an eight-game slide with a 7-3 victory over the Kansas City Royals.

Joe Ryan, coming off a scoreless six-inning start in Kansas City, was absolutely tremendous Wednesday at Target Field.

Hoges fills in for Dan Thompson and the boys discuss the importance of Byron Buxton to the roster of the new AL Central leaders. The boys wonder how much longer Miguel Sano will be given starts at 1st if his struggles continue, and are curious if Max Kepler has actually figured out how to beat the shift. In Herbie's Headlines the Yankees team and fans take center stage, and Hoges flips the script on David in Dan's Dumbs.

The Twins were rolling early in Sunday's win over the Mariners, as Byron Buxton led the game off with a homer and Gary Sánchez blasted a grand slam in the first inning.

Opening Day is only a day or two away depending on the weather, and David and Dan are joined by Andrew "Hoges" Hoganson to give their predictions for the Minnesota Twins 2022 season. Hoges thinks there are too many "ifs" to have any optimism for the Twins starting rotation, while Dan has nothing but optimism for Miguel Sano. Dan's love for Byron Buxton is still as strong as his hate for Max Kepler and David proves himself to be the homer of the group with his season record prediction. Hoges believes the defensive upgrades will play a role in improving the pitching staff's ERA, and both he and Dan can't wait to gush about Joe Mauer while David is traveling later this season.

Baseball ist Americas Favorite Pasttime und die Major League Baseball die beste Liga der Welt, aber in Deutschland doch eher eine Nische in den Randsportarten. Um diesen Missstand zu beheben ist Laura Rühlemann die neue Sportdirektorin beim Deutschen Baseball- und Softballverband und kommt aus der Leichtathletik. Wieso das gut ist, wie sie versucht Baseball und Softball zum Breitensport zu machen, als Schulsport zu etablieren und was Baseball5 ist. Sowie wie man mehr deutsche Talente, neben Max Kepler, in die Major League Baseball bekommen kann, warum und wie der Spielbetrieb im deutschen Baseball und Softball neu startet und weitergeht und wie die Zukunft des Base- und Softballs in Deutschland aussehen kann, sind nur einige der Themen im Podcast mit Patric Hoch.
