Tom Pohlad, now taking over operations of the Twins for his brother Joe, joins Chad to speak about the state of the club and the mistakes made over the last few years that he admits have failed and let fans down.
We begin the hour with a game of Make Chad Laugh before Chad speaks with new Twins boss Tom Pohlad about the state of the club and failures that have left fans disappointed with ownership. Plus, President Trump is doing more things that only he would do.
The full show starts with some Twins discussion and features a conversation with the new boss Tom Pohlad later on. Plus, Rena Sarigianopoulos joins for some of the usual Wednesday fun on her regular visit and Tom Hauser shares just how unpopular nearly all of Minnesota's most prominent politicians are today.
Send us a textAfter wrapping up the 2025 season, David, Dan and Hoges look toward the offseason and the moves they would like to see the Minnesota Twins make before spring training. Dan praises the frugality of the Pohlad family, while David and Hoges would very much like to see the owners spend more money. They take a look at which players they think will be in the starting rotation, the bullpen and the lineup. They also discuss the likelihood of an MLB stoppage and the potential of a salary cap in the next collective bargaining agreement.

Send us a textWithin a day of the end of the Minnesota Twins' season, manager Rocco Baldelli was fired and two articles were published about the Pohlad family. Somewhat surprised by both, David, Dan and Hoges recap each development. They are puzzled by the timing of the firing, even if it seems merited. They also offer up one former Twins player as a replacement candidate, though they'd prefer someone with a firmer approach than Baldelli's. And, as they generally agree: The recent stories about the Pohlads only add to the narrative that the family is not in it to win it. All three also offer their predictions for the 2025 postseason, with Dan following his heart, David following his head, and Hoges following something in between.

TONIGHT... You poor Twins fans! You were duped into thinking things would get better with the Pohlad family selling the team. PSYCH! Trevor explains why you need to remember these moments in 40-50 years. Then, we celebrate The Beatles lone visit to Minnesota in 1965. We then close the show with Marc "TNT" Stone and we begin our pre-season NFL preview. Tonight we tackle the NFC. Thanks for listening! Tell a friend!
While waiting breathlessly for actual football games (that count) to start, South Dakota State fans and media felt an early Christmas present drop in their lap on Monday with the news of the Jackrabbits accepting an invitation to play Montana in the new Vegas Kickoff Classic at Allegian Stadium — home of the Raiders — in 2029. In this week's addition of "Nobody's Listening Anyway" over cocktails at the Gateway Lounge, Happy Hour Host John Gaskins and Sioux Falls Live sports reporter Matt Zimmer dive into the relevance and meaning behind this news.Then, more preseason banter about the the Jacks and South Dakota Coyotes. SDSU quarterback Chase Mason offered another reason to brace for a breakout season with remarks he made on Happy Hour last week, but how much stock do we take in them? Plus, what is the "sneaky" significant aspect of the '25 Jacks that nobody is really talking about, and what is the most-anticipated part of USD football beyond senior QB Aidan Bouman?Meanwhile, what do we make of both the intense local and global spotlight shining brightly on South Dakota's 12-year-olds at the Little league World Series, while our high schoolers playing in recent state legion tourneys and grown men competiting in the state amateur events appear to play second fiddle?Why is Zim "not surprised buy devastated" of the Pohlad family it is not selling the Minnesota Twins after all? Enjoy a deep dive of deep-rooted contempt of 40 years of ownership. Finally, SDSU legend Zach Zenner recently remarked that he had only had five alcoholic beverages in his life, that he had never been drunk, and that alcohol doesn't enhance any situation it is consumed.As Zim and John sipped on Budweiser and Tito's on an idle Tuesday afternoon, enjoy the response.
Steve Adams joins Darragh McDonald to discuss news that the Pohlad family will retain majority ownership of the Twins, why fans are unhappy about it, and whether it will lead the team to trade guys like Pablo Lopez and Joe Ryan this offseason. Also, what led the Nationals to designate Nathaniel Lowe for assignment and for the Red Sox to sign him, how Josh Hader's capsule sprain will seemingly sideline him for the rest of this season, Zack Wheeler's unknown timeline to return after suffering a blood clot, and how mid-August has become an important time on the calendar in regards to prospect promotion incentives and service time. Listener question topics include which bullpen guys could potentially be placed on waivers this month to help their teams shed salary, if the Dodgers will target Kyle Tucker this offseason, and the craziest "come from nowhere" teams to make the playoffs and whether there are any possibilities of that happening this year.
Bobby and Alex discuss Bobby's experience on the field at Citizens Bank Park, before digging into the state of the Little League World Series, its coverage, and what its evolution tells us about baseball development in the 21st century. Then, they discuss Rob Manfred's surprisingly candid discussion of MLB expansion and division realignment. Finally, they discuss the Pohlad family's "will they, won't they" sell the Twins saga and the despair it's spawning in Twins fans.Links:Sign up for the TP KC tailgate!Join the Tipping Pitches Patreon (Use code PIAZZA for 50% off)Tipping Pitches merchandise Call the Tipping Pitches voicemail: 785-422-5881Tipping Pitches features original music from Steve Sladkowski of PUP.
Minnesota fans are stuck with the Pohlads for the foreseeable future, finally stripping any last semblance of hope for the Twins' immediate future. John and Ben break down the impact of the decision both short and long term, and whether Pablo Lopez, Joe Ryan, and Ryan Jeffers will be on the team in 2026 as a result. Plus they look at some positives for these last 6 weeks (Zebby Matthews and Luke Keaschall) and how the Twins can still set themselves up for success in 2026. Finally, they rank the morality and ethics of each member of the Pohlad family (just kidding, John wouldn't take the bait). Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Let's go camping and light a fire for the 2025 football season.With all the roster turnover and fresh faces in both the Jackrabbit and Coyote football programs, fans are salavating for a sneak peak into what's to come once the pigskin flies in just three weeks.How are both seasoned veteran Aidan Bouman and shiny new toy Chase Mason acclimating with some of the new teammates that are blocking for them, taking their handoffs, and catching their passes?Who are some of those studs in the trenches, in the backfield, and split wide who are waiting to burst out of their stables and run wild? Sure, whatever we read or hear should be taken with a dump truck of salt, but Sioux Falls Live's Matt Zimmer takes us to both Brookings and Vermillion for a boatload of insight. From his eyes and mouth to your ears, Zim's observations from the Gateway Lounge over a couple of Budweisers will glady serve as the precious kernels you can pop the next time you saddle up at the bar stool with your fellow SDSU or USD fans.Plus, what do we make of reports from Minnesota Vikings camp that new starting quarterback J.J. McCarthy is struggling mightily to hit his targets? And, how does lifelong die-hard Minnesota Twins fan Zim view the trade deadline moves that sent his favorite team into a tailspin likely to relegate it into irrelevance for years to come?

Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse joined host Michael Rand for a look back on the weekend in sports. The Twins won Sunday after losing three straight to Detroit as we approach the dog days of a lost season. Will there be any shakeups after the year now that we know the Pohlad family is keeping the team? The Vikings' backup QB situation is a mess, which is good for former Gophers QB Max Brosmer. He has a real chance to make the team. Plus the Lynx keep on winning without Napheesa Collier.

On this week's episode, we discuss various What If baseball scenarios throughout our lifetime, including Billy Beane running the Red Sox, various A-Rod trade scenarios, baseball in Florida if Jose Fernandez had not passed away, the Yankees success if Hank Steinbrenner took over, if Michael Jordan would have stayed in baseball had the 1994 strike been avoided, and Mike Trout's career if Albert Pujols had never signed with the Angels. We also discuss the Pohlad family taking the Twins off the market, potential divisional realignment with expansion, and the latest TV news around baseball.

We had the chance to talk to Hall of Famer Paul Molitor LIVE at Target Field! Got his reaction to yesterday's big ownership update, Pohlad's history with the Twins, current Twins like Buxton, Royce and others!
Send us a textThe Minnesota Twins went to Yankee Stadium and did something entirely expected in losing a series, two games to one. What was not so expected (but maybe should have been) was the news that the Pohlad family is no longer intending to sell the team. David and Dan react to that news as they also look at what the trade deadline deals have done to the Twins decidedly younger roster. David weighs whether he should give up his season tickets. Dan suggests that this behavior by the Pohlads is nothing to be surprised at, though the loss of hope is palpable.

The Minnesota Twins are not for sale after all. The Pohlad family announced Wednesday they will keep their majority ownership of the team. The Pohlads have been searching for months for a buyer after revealing their plans to sell last October. The family has owned the team since 1984. Twins Executive Chair Joe Pohlad spoke for the family in a written statement issued Wednesday morning. He said, “This ownership group is committed to building a winning team and culture for this region, one that Twins fans are proud to cheer for.” Minnesota Now sports contributor Wally Langfellow joins MPR News host Nina Moini to help explain the reversal.
