MN for the Win
Breakfast at Denny's (Diamondbacks Series Recap, 6/25-6/27)
A disappointing Game 1 aside, the Minnesota Twins play well in Arizona and take two of three from the Diamondbacks, which leaves David and Dan feeling good about the Twins midway through the regular season. There is lots to like, from the play of Byron Buxton and Jose Miranda to the versatility of Willi Castro and the survival skills of Carlos Correa, who seems to have avoided serious injury after taking a baseball to the arm in Game 3. David questions Rocco Baldelli's utilization of Joe Ryan in Game 1, while Dan wonders whether Rocco is paying any attention to opponents' splits when he puts together his lineup card. They compare Castro to Luis Arraez and assess whether the Twins might make any moves at the deadline next month. Thanks for listening, and go Twins!
