Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with the Twins, who lost again in Baltimore to fall to 6-11. They are missing three of their most important players, and it is showing. Can they take advantage of a more forgiving schedule in the next 13 games -- including seven against the woeful White Sox -- to get their season turned around?
Can things get better for the Wild after a disappointing season?
A team with playoff aspirations stumbled at the start and couldn’t fully regroup. With one more year to weather the buyouts of Zach Parise and Ryan Suter, can the Wild be any better next season?
8:00: Star Tribune Wild writer Sarah McLellan joins Rand. The Wild’s season ends Thursday, and most would label it a disappointment. After missing the playoffs this season, what can the Wild do to turn things around next year?
30:00: An uncomfortable moment at Caitlin Clark’s introductory news conference.
