Episode Details
Back to EpisodesThe Roster Formerly Known as the Cubs (Cubs Series Recap, 9/21-9/22)
Description
The Twins get a two-game sweep in Chicago, their first sweep since before the All-Star Break, but it comes at the hands of -- can we say it? -- the lowly Cubs. Yet the two games entertained David and Dan, who were impressed with Nick Gordon and Max Kepler, and especially Joe Ryan. They discuss what the rotation might look like next season and how that impacts the chances the team agrees to a new contract with Byron Buxton, and whether the Twins will spend big in the offseason. Dan asks David about playoff expansion, and then quietly slides into the background for the rest of the episode. Maybe David was just upset because he has yet to clinch his title in Puckett's Picks. Thanks for listening. Enjoy!
