Episode Details
Back to EpisodesA New Arm, and a Baseball Conspiracy (2022 Twins Spring Training, No. 2)
Description
The Twins seemingly made their last major acquisition this week, signing Chris Archer, who hasn't been great in about seven years. So, it looks as if the overhaul for the 2022 season is finished -- but will the Twins have enough pitching? David and Dan discuss the unique Archer deal as well as the bench spots and bullpen arms as they stand now. Dan waxes about Joe Smith's important historical presence on the roster, David offers a plan to replace Miguel Sano if needed, and both of them revisit the significant extra-inning rule change that David's brother proposed last episode. And don't get Dan going on the significance of the placement of second base.
