Article: Twins Hangouts, June 3: Episode 27

[Jeremy Nygaard]

Don't forget, a special Hangout will happen on Thursday at 6pm to cover the draft.

 

It's Tuesday again, so be sure to join Seth and Jeremy at 9 pm for another Hangout. We'll be joined live by Eric Pleiss of Talk2Contact fame. Feel free to ask him lots of questions (like, why the perma-sweater?)

As far as baseball goes, we'll be talking about the Yankees series, the Brewers series, the minor leagues (as always) and some very impressive pitching lines from the last week.

 

There's been some exciting transaction news in the last 24 hours and last, but probably most importantly, the upcoming MLB Draft.
