The World Series is over, and the 2024 Major League Baseball season is officially behind us. David, Dan and Hoges reflect on the season that was for the Minnesota Twins, who started slow, picked up the winning pace ... and then slowed to a crawl toward the finish line. They recap the Twins-related news of the last month and they also go over the predictions they made back in March at the dawn of what looked like a promising season. Then, with the lens wide enough to examine the whole season, they consider the choices of Rocco Baldelli, the biggest moments of the season, the grade the Twins deserve and then a few of the big questions heading into 2025. Thanks for listening, and as always, go Twins!

The Pohlad family have announced their intention to sell the Minnesota Twins, the team has a new streaming deal in place for 2025, and the front office makes some coaching changes to the Twins staff. With so much happening in Twins Territory the boys couldn't stay away. David, Dan, and Andrew "Hoges" Hoganson discuss all of the big news coming from Target Field. David wants an owner who's willing to bankrupt themselves to win a World Series, while Dan and Hoges take a more reasonable approach. The guys discuss the history of the Pohlad family and the terrible interviews and statements made over the course of the last two seasons leading up to this decision. David can't hide his love for Peter Alonso as he talks about the Mets advancing to the NLCS, while Dan tries his best to keep his love for Aaron Judge in check. The boys finish up by giving their preferred World Series matchups. Thanks for listening, and as always, go Twins!

The Minnesota Twins were swept by the Baltimore Orioles at Target Field, and were officially eliminated from the playoffs. David and Dan recap the miserable series and dive into all the breaking news regarding Rocco Baldelli retaining his position as manager, and Derek Falvey also staying on board in the front office. The boys discuss the Twins removing a fan from the stadium who held up signs criticizing ownership, and talk through some of the quotes from Correa and others about the disappointing end to the season. Dan wants to know how the Twins will replace Kepler in right field, while David takes issue with the position held by some that the Twins weren't that good to begin with so ownership not spending money was the right move last offseason and at the trade deadline. The boys finish up looking at the crazy NL Wildcard race and offer a heartfelt thank you to the loyal listeners this season. Thanks for listening, and as always, go Twins!
