Close Enough to Buy a Hat (Minnesota Twins Spring Training No. 2)

Send a text

On the heels of the Olympics, the World Baseball Classic is nearly here, and David and Dan are excited about the chance to continue rooting for the United States, especially with Byron Buxton on the roster. They look around the league to see how the automated balls and strikes system is going while diving into the rosters of the WBC. They also look at the Minnesota Twins' roster, which is taking shape, even if there are more open spots and unknowns than there have been in many years. David is curious who will actually close games out of the bullpen, and Dan wonders how much room there is in the outfield -- and whose names will soon be on the jerseys available at the Twins online shop. Thanks for listening, and go Twins!
