@jeremynygaard @SethTweets Fess up. Did you have to drug @kgib44 or kidnap a pet or something to get him to agree?

Kyle Gibson ‏@kgib44  · 2h2 hours ago 

@JimCrikket @jeremynygaard @SethTweets They each agreed to name their next child Kyle for a boy, and Kylie for a girl. Its that easy.

Need to give Kyle a little grief.

This season you had the highest ERA differential between wins and losses since Sammy Ellis of the Reds in 1965. 11.07 difference...1.07 in your wins, 12.14 in your losses.

What do you attribute this to? As simple as you had your really good stuff in certain starts and just couldn't get it going in others? Certain pitches fail you in those losses?

Wondering how closely Gibson is following the Twins manager search process. Does he find himself following every bit of news and every new rumor on the subject or does he try to simply put it out of mind until there's a formal announcement concerning the hire?

Kyle, you pitched in the Arizona Fall League in 2012 and did pretty well. What was that experience like? Do you feel like it helped you prepare for the jump to the big club in 2013? Who were some of the current major leaguer hitters that you faced?

With the buyout of Jared Burton, does this open up a spot for a power arm like Nick Burdi to make the Twins out of spring training? Or do you think he spends a little more time at Chatanooga or Rochester?

Good show, guys. You did a great job with Gibson.

man I love player interviews. This one was excellent. If you guys havent gotten onto the new Twins podcast, Talking Twins, they had Cole DeVries on a couple weeks ago, great interview. Keep it coming fellas.
