Despite some good pitching performances, the Minnesota Twins lost another series, this time three games out of four to the Kansas City Royals in Kansas City. David and Dan see plenty of culprits, mostly on the lineup card in the poor performances by Jose Miranda and Byron Buxton (whom both of them hope is able to tend to family matters while he is away). The lack of fundamentals in baserunning and fielding are concerning to David, while Dan thinks that Rocco Baldelli mishandled his trip to talk to home plate umpire Nic Lentz during Game 1 of this series. They discuss whether David Festa or Zebby Matthews will assume a more permanent role in the rotation in Pablo Lopez's absence, and they talk about whose spot on the roster Brooks Lee will take. Thanks for listening, and go Twins!
