Send us a textDespite all the rain, the Minnesota Twins and Cleveland Guardians managed to get a couple games in at Target Field this series, splitting the pair. And that seemed just fine, considering how battered the Twins' lineup is now. David and Dan discuss the impact weather had on this series while seriously questioning how Rocco Baldelli handled it, while they also saw the ending to Game 1 as the most Minnesota ending a baseball game could have. They assess how the team is holding together the lineup without Carlos Correa and Byron Buxton, and they look ahead to a big weekend of baseball in the AL Central.

Send us a textIt was more fun talking about This Week in Baseball goings-on since #MLB team captains are kinda unimportant. A vestige of 19th century baseball, there are only three team captains in the Majors today. # Yankees Aaron Judge #Royals Salvador Perez, & #Rangers Marcus Semien. Why aren't there more? We dive into that thought in this week's episode. Four of the five teams in the #ALWest are .500 or better. Who'da thunk it? Jacob DeGrom is looking like prime DeGrom for Texas. Pitching injuries continue to be the story of the 2025 season. Blake Snell and Tyler Glasnow of the #Dodgers are both on the IL. The boys from L.A. keep on winning. How about the Tampa Bay #Rays? They have had a bunch of home games scheduled in the early part of the season because there is not roof over Steinbrenner Field in Tampa - the temporary home of the Rays. If you didn't know, it rains a bunch in the afternoons and evenings in Tampa in the summer. So MLB is trying to avoid rainouts and scheduled the Rays for a lot of road trips after May. ]#RedSox puzzle us. Injuries yes, to Tristan Casas, hurt, but the Sox just find ways to lose instead of ways to win. #Yankees are in 1st place by default. Intro & Outro music this season courtesy of Mercury Maid!

Send us a textThe Minnesota Twins' latest visit to Cleveland goes about as well as they seem to: not well. The Twins win the first and then lose the next three in close fashion, dropping farther under .500 -- which is all still part of David's grand vision for their return to a winning record by mid-summer. David's optimism, though, is limited after seeing the bats go cold and the pitchers prove unable to get the ball to first base in key moments. Dan is not so sure Ryan Jeffers has truly turned a corner, but he is quite sure that a healthy Willi Castro would make a difference right now, considering Rocco Baldelli's bench options. David thinks the Twins should just bring Royce Lewis back now, even if he's just cheering from the bench until he's fully ready to return.

Send us a textThe Minnesota Twins win a series for the third time in eight opportunities, handling the Chicago White Sox in two of three at Target Field. David and Dan are pleased with the series win and some of the positive signs, most notably the play of rookie Luke Keaschall, whose flowing golden locks definitely make him a better player (or at least more fun to watch steal bases). Dan does his best to defend the idea of keeping Rocco Baldelli on as manager for not just this year but for a long time beyond. David has a path for the Twins to get back to .500 by the All-Star Break in July. And they've both got some empathy for Rocco who has turned so often lately to an empty bench.

Send us a textThe Minnesota Twins are swept in a three game series against the Atlanta Braves at Truist Park. The boys breakdown all of the missed chances throughout the series, along some questionable decisions from the manager, Rocco Baldelli. The guys discover a potential new rule to present to Rob Manfred, and walk through the numerous roster moves made by the Twins in the last few days. David wonders if it's time to let Rocco go, and Dan wants to know why it's taken Rocco this long to discover that stealing bases is a good strategic option with the increased base sizes and the limit on the number of pickoff attempts.

It's been a never-ending cycle for the Twins: any time they start to harness a shred of momentum or positivity, they abruptly fall flat on their faces and plunge into another losing spell. This past week, the modest positivity of a series win over the Mets was quickly overwritten by getting swept in Altanta. Nick reviews the latest disappointing stretch of baseball and wonders how much longer manager Rocco Baldelli can survive the persistently putrid showinfs from this team.

Send us a textFor the fourth time this season, the Minnesota Twins lost a series, this time at home to the first-place Detroit Tigers. But they did salvage at least a win, in Game 3, showing that even a fourth-place team still wins once in a while. With David taking a Buxton-like scheduled off-day, Hoges fills in to talk about the team with Dan, and both have lots to say about manager Rocco Baldelli. They question his handling of basically the entire roster, from decisions on pinch-hitting and pinch-running to how long to let starters and relievers stay in the game. In the end, though, they are the least impressed with how little impact it seems (so far) the changes he instituted in spring training have made to a team that resembles the one that ended last season far more than the team that cruised into first place last summer.

Gleeman and The Geek - An Unauthorized Minnesota Twins Podcast
Aaron and John talk about the Twins desperately needing to stop digging a deeper hole, Pablo López's injury throwing the rotation into flux, why the lineup's biggest names are dragging it down the most, and Rocco Baldelli's job status being in question.
Send us a textDespite some good pitching performances, the Minnesota Twins lost another series, this time three games out of four to the Kansas City Royals in Kansas City. David and Dan see plenty of culprits, mostly on the lineup card in the poor performances by Jose Miranda and Byron Buxton (whom both of them hope is able to tend to family matters while he is away). The lack of fundamentals in baserunning and fielding are concerning to David, while Dan thinks that Rocco Baldelli mishandled his trip to talk to home plate umpire Nic Lentz during Game 1 of this series. They discuss whether David Festa or Zebby Matthews will assume a more permanent role in the rotation in Pablo Lopez's absence, and they talk about whose spot on the roster Brooks Lee will take.

Our first WTF winner, what one woman called the most problematic name ever and we all think it's time for Rocco Baldelli to whip out the rally sausage. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with the Twins, who fell to 3-7 with another sad loss to the Royals. Rocco Baldelli was ejected, bringing to mind another angry manager: the leader of the Durham Bulls in the fictional movie Bull Durham, who lamented that baseball is a simple game. "You throw the ball, you hit the ball, you catch the ball." The Twins aren't good at any of those things right now. 9:00: Chris Hine joins Rand to break down the final four games of the Wolves season and the very crowded playoff race. 32:00: Florida wins the title and the Gophers land a recruit.

Send us a textWhile Game 1 wasn't pretty, the Minnesota Twins did finally get one win and then another one to take two of three against the Chicago White Sox, evening them up with the rest of the AL Central's teams at 2-4. So in that sense, it's a whole new ballgame for the final 156 this Major League Baseball season. David and Dan discuss the lows of Chris Paddack's start and then the highs of the games that followed, which featured improved outputs from Byron Buxton and Carlos Correa. David really likes how Rocco Baldelli is managing leadoff man Matt Wallner, while Dan struggles to justify keeping Paddack on the active roster should the veteran starter struggle again the next time through the rotation.

Send us a textThe 2025 season starts right about where the 2024 Minnesota Twins left off as they lose all three to the Cardinals in St. Louis. David and Dan assess what went wrong (lots) and highlight what went right (Willi Castro and Randy Dobnak). David was happy to see Rocco Baldelli move to steal some bases, while Dan thinks Rocco should have given Bailey Ober an earlier hook in Game 3 -- if he chose to start him at all. Dan also asks what role an under-the-weather Eddy Julien has on this team, and David ponders whether this 0-3 start will get even worse against the Chicago White Sox this week. They also look around the league at the automatic strike zone challenge system data, a highlight for a former Twins player and a big day for the Yankees (new) bats.

Host Michael Rand starts with a bit of a curious rant about the flexibility MLB managers seem to crave when it comes to carrying a third catcher. It was a popular thing during Ron Gardenhire's time with the Twins, and now it seems Rocco Baldelli has been inflicted with the virus.
