Podcast appearances and mentions of Rocco Baldelli

It appears that the end has finally come for the Minnesota Twins, who lose four of five in a series against the Cleveland Guardians where they really needed the opposite result to keep their postseason hopes alive. But now seven games back with just five series left, the Twins are all but eliminated and now are striving to get back to above .500.  Matt Wallner's MLB debut -- one much too late in Dan's judgment -- is among the only series bright spots for Minnesota, and both David and Dan have plenty of questions for how Rocco Baldelli managed this team in this series and down the stretch (though they grant that injuries are a major factor in their demise). They wonder whether this lands among the most disappointing Twins seasons ever, and they take a look around the MLB playoff picture, one that almost surely will not include Minnesota.

Introduction: If you missed it Tuesday, Twins rookie Joe Ryan had a no-hitter going through seven innings and 106 pitches before being removed by manager Rocco Baldelli. These sorts of things happen frequently enough that they aren't huge debate points any more, but that doesn't change the "what-if" quality and disappointment. 6:00: A well-earned draw for Minnesota United, but some drama along the way. 10:00: How Gophers football players prepare for games and watch games, with perspectives from defensive lineman Thomas Rush and quarterback Tanner Morgan. Then beat writer Randy Johnson joins host Michael Rand to talk about the Gophers being No. 1 in total offense and total defense in FBS. 31:00: Revisiting the Monday Night Football finish.

Joe Ryan was 7 innings into a no-hitter when manager Rocco Baldelli pulled the plug. Was it the right call? Voice of the Twins Cory Provus joined the show

It has been a tough start a big three game series against Cleveland. Twins' President of Baseball Operations Derek Falvey stops by “Inside Twins” to discuss the importance of the series finale. He also looks at the factors which have led Twins starters to go less than 5 innings 61 times so far this season, with the team being 19-42 in those contests. Derek provides a handful of injury updates, and then dives into the recently announced new rules for 2023 such as the pitch clock and cutting down on defensive shifts. Finally, he addresses the situation from Friday's game when manager Rocco Baldelli asked the umpires to check Cleveland reliever James Karinchak for a foreign substance To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

The Minnesota Twins lose 2 of 3 against the Chicago White Sox at Guaranteed Rate Field. The boys are upset that the Twins didn't take this golden opportunity to put the White Sox out of contention and to take sole possession of first place in the AL Central as the Guardians struggled against the Mariners. The boys breakdown the bizarre events at the end of game one, and the miserable offensive performance in game two. The boys discuss the blocking the plate rule that once again works against the Twins, and Dan is coming around to the idea of the electronic strike zone. Dan accuses David of showing favoritism for Dylan Bundy over Chris Archer, and Dan pulls no punches in his criticism of both Tyler Mahle's poor outing, and Rocco's poor management of Mahle's outing. David wants to know if it's time to move on from Rocco Baldelli, and Dan expresses his feeling that the Twins are going to win a couple of games in New York against the Yankees this week.

Twins manager Rocco Baldelli joins Kris Atteberry for Inside Twins this week. In a wide-ranging conversation, Rocco explains his decision to bench two starters in the 5th inning of a lopsided game in which opposing starter Dylan Cease was attempting to throw a no-hitter. He also shared a health update on starter Tyler Mahle, and the Twins' skipper dives into his scouting background once Rocco's playing days were finished.

Largely behind the bat of Nick Gordon, the Twins win two of three at home against the Boston Red Sox, and they stay close to the AL Central-leading Cleveland Guardians as we head into September. Back from vacation, David waxes about memories of his grandmother and the rich family history of Twins' fandom. As to this series, they praise and criticize the play of Gordon, and they question the way Rocco Baldelli ended Game 3 and also how he handled substitutions in Game 1. David gets to answer Hoges' Archer argument from last episode, while Dan mostly sits by and watches. They also discuss how to properly take a curtain call, and they look around the league at what Pete Alonso has been doing for the Mets.

The Minnesota Twins ended a six-game losing streak emphatically with a three-game sweep of the San Francisco Giants, who previously had only visited Minnesota for one series since the Giants moved out West. Filling in for a vacationing David, Hoges praises the play of baseball superstar Carlos Correa, who had perhaps his best series with the Twins, and Dan jumps on the Jake Cave bandwagon after the oft cast-off centerfielder also has his best series with the Twins this season. They discuss whether Rocco Baldelli's team-meeting speech deserves credit for the turnaround series, but they also wonder if Rocco really knows the difference (again) between low- and high-leverage situations (specifically when Emilio Pagan is available to pitch). They also end with a discussion of Julio Rodriguez's new contract with the Mariners and whether that sort of deal is something the Twins should explore with their young stars.

The Houston Astros finished off a season sweep of the Minnesota Twins by winning all three in Houston this week, extending the Twins' overall losing streak to six games. They are now four back in the Central with just over a month to go, yet David and Dan are not entirely down on this injury-depleted team. They discuss the few highlights of Carlos Correa's return to his former home stadium (no boos!) and they dissect the circumstances that led to Rocco Baldelli's ejection in Game 1. After ranting about ERA, David asks just where the bar needs to be for the fill-in outfielders, and Dan wonders whether Correa has done enough this season to merit a long-term deal next year. Finally, they end by looking optimistically at the newly released MLB 2023 season calendar.

Introduction: One of the hardest things for an "expert" to admit is that they don't know something. But when it comes to the 2022 Vikings, we are dealing with such incomplete information heading into the season that anyone trying to predict how the year will go is ripe with overconfidence. The nature of everything that has transpired this offseason means we are in for surprises when the year actually starts. 9:00: Star Tribune Minnesota United beat writer Jerry Zgoda joins host Michael Rand for a look at the red-hot Loons. They've scored 25 goals in their past 10 matches, losing just once in that span, after averaging about a goal per game until that point. Can United sustain that going forward? 21:00: Rocco Baldelli wants the Twins to play loose. Is that the problem, or do they just not have enough talent in the lineup right now with all the injuries? 26:00: Patrick Beverley is on the move to the Lakers.

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

Introduction: Ejections were the norm during the Ron Gardenhire era, as the Twins manager either led the American League outright or tied for the league lead in ejections every year from 2006-2011. Rocco Baldelli has tended to be much more mild-mannered, but lately he has been positively Gardy-esque. On Tuesday he was ejected for the second time this month and fourth time this season after being tossed just six times combined in his first three seasons as a manager. 7:00: Star Tribune columnist Chip Scoggins joins host Michael Rand for a look at Byron Buxton and another stint on the injured list and thoughts on the Vikings' acquisition of Nick Mullens as their presumed backup quarterback. 28:00: Mullens met with the media on Tuesday and vowed to be focused on the task at hand.

Eric and Brett discuss the game that started off as a tribute to Carlos Correa, but Justin Verlander quickly put him in his place by striking him out. After a lengthy delay in the fifth inning, Justin Verlander only pitched six no-hit innings, but it was dominating! Correa broke up the no-hitter in the seventh. What led to the benches-clearing incident? Why did Rocco Baldelli get tossed? Join the Locked On Astros podcast following the game.

It was a bittersweet day for the Minnesota Twins as they swept the Kansas City Royals but lost their starting pitcher early. Tyler Mahle exited the game with "right shoulder fatigue" after noticeable velocity dips in his first few innings. Rocco Baldelli said he won't immediately be placed on the injured list and that an MRI is on the agenda. The Twins beat the Royals 4-0 and improved to 61-55 on the season.

The Minnesota Twins were overmatched in a two-game series with the Los Angeles Dodgers, and it is perhaps comforting for David and Dan that they no longer need to play a team that looks an awful lot like the New York Yankees in stature and mystique. Back together after being apart the last three series, David and Dan find the Twins in second place for the first time in a long while, and they find it hard to see a ton of bright spots in this two-game performance against the Dodgers. They discuss Rocco Baldelli's management of his pitchers, and Dan wonders whether the manager's punishment for his unkind words to the league is an admittance that the replay booth in New York got that call wrong last series. Though they are confident Minnesota is still the best team in the AL Central, they boys are eager to see the Twins put together a winning streak as their competition gets a bit weaker the next few series.

Former MLB umpire Tim Tschida joins Chad to talk about the overturned call in the 10th inning Sunday that caused Twins manager Rocco Baldelli to lose his mind and get ejected. Tschida explains how the rule came to be, how umpires interpret the rule, and why he disagrees with the call that was made by MLB's replay official.

Against a playoff-caliber team, the Minnesota Twins earn a four-game split at Target Field with the Toronto Blue Jays. But it felt like a series the Twins could have won if not for an overturned call in the 10th inning of Game 4. Hoges -- filling in again for David -- was at the game for it and has lots to say about the way that replay was handled by the MLB crew in New York City. He and Dan praise Rocco Baldelli for his display of emotion and for his articulate critique of the process in his postgame interview. They also discuss the excellent play of Jose Miranda and Nick Gordon, who anchored a lineup riddled with injuries and days off. They praise the hustle of Jake Cave and Gordon, and then Dan asks Hoges whether Carlos Correa should be worried about his job security at shortstop. Hoges wonders what it will take for this season to be perceived as a success, and they end with a look around the Majors at the haplessAngels, the death of Vin Scully and a dominant White Sox pitcher.

Mark Grote filled in for Parkins and Spiegel this Friday afternoon and started his show talking about the White Sox's 12-2 win over the Twins - which featured two head-scratching decisions from Twins manager Rocco Baldelli. Later, Grote talks about how he's hit the wall with the Cubs after two tough series. 

In the final hour, Dan Bernstein and Laurence Holmes were joined by Dan Hayes of the Athletic to preview the four-game series between the White Sox and Twins that begins Thursday evening. Bernstein and Holmes then discussed why they appreciate White Sox closer Liam Hendriks. Later, they shared the clever way that Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and Molson Coors got around NFL rules regarding beer endorsements.

The Minnesota Twins lost the opener in Arlington 6-5 to the Texas Rangers. Sonny Gray pitched well until the fifth, when he combusted and forced Rocco Baldelli to pull him after allowing three runs. Then Caleb Thielbar gave up a three-run homer to Corey Seager, a swing that ended up winning the game. The Twins are 47-39. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

David and Dan return to the podcast after a one-series absence and pick apart the Twins' series victory over the rival White Sox, two games to one in Chicago. They discuss the first-of-its-kind triple play turned by the Twins and the homer-fueled hitting display by Minnesota, which got big games from Luis Arraez, Jorge Polanco and Alex Kirilloff. Once again, though, the Twins' bullpen can't hold a lead, this time in Game 3 after a short start by Joe Ryan. David questions the manner in which Rocco Baldelli is employing Emilio Pagan, and Dan eats a bit of crow in his earlier comments about the MLB readiness of Jose Miranda, who had another strong series. They also discuss two players who are headed in different directions on the injury front: starting pitcher Chris Archer, who just went on the IL; and Miguel Sano, who is (according to Dan) coming back to the Majors soon.

The Twins head to the desert and come up with just one win in a three-game series with the Arizona Diamondbacks, a disappointing outcome in the eyes of David and Dan. They look back at a homer-heavy series at which Dan was in attendance for all three games. Dan offers his assessment of the gameday experience at Chase Field in Phoenix, and David asks the elephant-in-the-room question about why exactly there is a line across the centerfield wall. They dissect Rocco Baldelli's use of the team's pitchers and wonder whether Devin Smeltzer is going to turn it around next series after a rough Game 1 in Arizona. They also consider the Twins' roster options whenever Jorge Polanco comes back, and David asks whether the Twins should get the gang back together, starting with the recently released Sergio Romo.
