Description
In this special episode Dan, David, and Hoges are all together in the studio recapping the Twins series win over the Chicago White Sox. Hoges regales David and Dan with his tale of running in the race at Target field, and agrees with David that no hitters still matter, much to Dan's chagrin. Hoges celebrates his first victory in Puckett's Pucks as the listener's pick, and in a turning of the tables Dan finds himself defending Jake Cave in Beast vs. Bench. The optimism for 2022 is increasing in the boys as they discuss the increasing effectiveness of both Jax and Ober, or as David likes to call them, the JaxsonOber combination. The boys argue whether or not Sano is playing for his job next year, and they finish up by making their picks for the upcoming series against the Rays, who now have Twins' fan favorite Nelson Cruz on their roster. Thanks for listening!
