Introduction: Host Michael Rand takes a look at the increasingly perilous pitching depth for the Twins. Steady starter Joe Ryan had to leave Wednesday's game with a triceps injury and is almost certain to miss some time. Minnesota, which wasn't able to add any starting pitching help at the trade deadline, could be leaning more than ever on young arms at a crucial point in its season.
10:00: Rand is joined by Rick Sutton, the former head coach of the Mankato West football team. Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, who this week became the Democrat nominee for Vice President, was an assistant coach on the 1999 squad that won the Class 4A state title. Sutton recalls the history of that team and what Walz was like as a coach.
28:00: It's always a good time to be thinking about Naz Reid.
