December 15, 2019
Aaron and John talk about what's left of the Twins' chances of signing a big-time free agent, what pivoting to the trade market for pitching help would entail, Eddie Rosario and Jake Cave trade rumors, getting scouting reports on middle relievers from drunk women in bars, and the war zone that is Twins Twitter.

I'm intrigued by Aaron's statement that years don't matter. Huh. I personally would rather have Berrios signed to a 5 year - $65 million contract verses a 1 year - $65 million contract. I'd take John's position on that point.
