Back to EpisodesCorrea in a Cold Sweat (Royals Series Recap, 5/26-5/29)
Description
The Minnesota Twins split four games with the rival Kansas City Royals but lose two players to injuries in Game 4: staff ace Sonny Gray and the much-hyped Royce Lewis, who left his place in centerfield with a bruised knee. David and Dan discuss what their absences might mean for the team -- and Dan goes so far as to wonder whether Lewis' injury has Carlos Correa thinking differently about his own future in Minnesota, which is inexplicable to David. They also discuss the crucial "puddy" role that Nick Gordon fills on the team, the continued strong play of Luis Arraez and the ever-changing puzzle that is the starting rotation. They wonder about whether Alex Kirilloff will rejoin the team anytime soon, and they end by unpacking the bizarre exchange elsewhere in the league between Joc Pederson and Tommy Pham -- over fantasy football. Thanks for listening! Enjoy.
