JD sat down with Twins pitching prospect Pierson Ohl for the first-ever DTS player interview. Ohl came into the Twins organization as a 14th-round pick in 2021 and had a decent full-season debut in 2022. But Ohl's 2023, especially after his promotion to Double-A Wichita, really put him on the prospect radar. JD talked with Pierson about his development plan with Twins, other prospects he’s being impressed by, and what led to his success at AA, among other things

The Twins traded Jorge Polanco to the Mariners. Jamie, Jeremy and Theo got together to recap the trade and more.
