A series victory was within Minnesota's grasp, but when playing the New York Yankees, the best-laid plays go oft awry for the Twins. They lose two of three to the Pinstripes at Target Field. But while David and Dan wonder about Rocco's next-game-up bullpen management, they also point out the many positives: The Twins chased three Yankees starters early, Byron Buxton got back on track, and Carlos Correa returned to the lineup. They also assess the performances from Minnesota's starting pitchers -- the remains of an injury-battered starting rotation -- and they discuss whether Jose Miranda is here to stay (David is staunchly in Miranda's corner). Finally, Dan shares his frustration about more talk of banning the shift next season. Thanks for listening, and go Twins!
