The Desert Islands of Second and Third Base (Braves Series Recap, 6/26-28)
Sure, it was the Atlanta Braves, who showed themselves to be the best team in the National League. But the Minnesota Twins' showing in this series -- a sweep by the Braves -- was perhaps their most dismal of the season. David and Dan find flaws in all sorts of places, from Rocco Baldelli to Tommy Watkins to Carlos Correa ... and so many more. David walks through Joey Gallo's odyssey to third base in Game 2, while Dan questions another baserunning gaffe in Game 3. They discuss what might be at play with the Twins' 0-for-23 effort with runners in scoring position, and they wonder whether this is going to be a turning point for the positive or the negative in their prospects, now as the second-place team in the AL Central. Thanks for listening, and go Twins!
