We touched on the Rangers winning the World Series briefly, followed by almost two hours of discussing Craig Counsell, the vacancy he left, and all of our offseason projections for the Brewers. Friend of the pod Ryan was along for this one to help us crunch the numbers. If you are tight with Mark Attanasio, tell him to listen to this one to get the winning formula for next year.

The Brewers named Pat Murphy as the new manager and Rickie Weeks as the associate manager. Jackson Chourio signed an 8 year extension that could max out at 10 years and $142.5 million. We finished the episode by breaking down our best to play for the Brewers but not necessarily as Brewers lineups.

Scoop, Kian, and Cole gather to discuss the transactions in the last month. Nothing major happened, but lots of arb deals were settled. We also talked about the possibility of Corbin Burnes getting traded due to regression. To finish off, we debated the Mount Rushmore of the 1980's Milwaukee Brewers.

After being non-tendered a few months ago, the Brewers agreed to terms on a 2-year deal with one of the best pitchers in franchise history. The other major storylines include Sal Frelick taking infield reps in Spring Training and Gary Sanchez's deal finally becoming official. We selected our picks for the 2010's Milwaukee Brewers Mount Rushmore, and then we finished up with listener submitted predictions for 2024.

Scoop, Cole, and Ryan got together to discuss the outlook on the Brewers' bullpen heading into the regular season, following the news that their 2x NL Reliever of the Year will be out until at least June with two stress fractures in his back. We talked about is who's hot at Spring Training, who we think the Opening Day roster consists of, and Ryan made his rapid fire 2024 MLB predictions to preview our next episode. Tune in all the way until the end to hear how Scoop got Josh Hader's mattress when he was traded to the Padres. Right after recording, we found out that Jackson Chourio made the Opening Day roster!

The guys started off the episode by briefly talking about the biggest story in MLB right now, the Shohei Ohtani situation. The Opening Day roster for the Milwaukee Brewers is just about set, but news came out of camp that Garrett Mitchell just fractured his hand. We discussed what that means for the final spot on the roster, as well as the fate of third catcher Eric Haase. To finish the episode, we did a deep dive into our 2024 MLB predictions. These included playoff teams, Brewers' All-Stars, MVPs, Cy Youngs, Rookie of the Years, and Championship and World Series picks.

The Brewers opened the 2024 season with three straight wins in New York against the Mets. Highlights from that series included a Yeli bomb, benches clearing, finger guns, a great start by Freddy, and many hits for the Crew. We did a dive into Bryan Hudson's analytics from his Brewers' debut. We highlighted good news and bad news out of Nashville, including a shoulder injury to the highly-touted Jeferson Quero. The episode concluded with an interview with Javik Blake, the voice of the Biloxi Shuckers. He filled us in on all the the big names that he saw in AA Biloxi last year and who to keep an eye on in 2024.

Scoop and Cole talked about the Reds, Orioles, and Padres series recaps resulting in a 5-4 week. The Brewers currently hold a half game lead over the Cubs for first place in the NL Central as of the end of play on 4/17/24. We did a brief around the league to check in on the standings and talked roster and injury news, including red hot Christian Yelich hitting the shelf. 2023 Nashville Sounds Fan Favorite and current infielder for the AAA squad, Patrick Dorrian, joined us for about a half hour to talk about his career path, his time in Nashville, and other things he'd like Brewers fans to know about him. We finished up the week with a very cool Random Game in Brewers History, Beer of the Week, and some Jackie Robinson appreciation.

The Brewers are off to a 14-8 start (that turned into a 15-8 start shortly after the conclusion of recording)! Despite taking hit after hit to the rotation, this young team continues to find ways to win ballgames and lead the NL Central. We talked the sweep of the Cardinals, the beginning of the series in Pittsburgh, the standout Brewers through less than one month, and the new injury news. Tobias Myers was featured after his MLB Debut. Additionally, we dove into the standings, recent farm system news and performance, the upcoming schedule, and more!

Disclaimer, this was recorded just before first pitch of the Rays game where benches cleared. Scoop and Cole discussed the arrival of Tyler Black, the 3-3 record since we last met, and the poor umpiring in the last game of the Yankees series and the first game of the Rays series. Wade Miley will miss the rest of the 2024 season as he will undergo elbow surgery. As always, we highlighted the standouts of the week, standings, injuries, roster moves, and farm system. The Random Game of the Week took us all the way back to 2007. Finally, we ended with a mailbag from our Twitter followers!

We left off last time just before the first pitch of the Rays game that had many fireworks and resulted in a brawl and suspensions. After giving Chris Guccione a piece of our minds, we dove into the Brewers first time facing manager Craig Counsell and their trip down to Wrigley. To wrap up the recaps, we talked about the Royals series, Willy Adames playing hero, the return of Christian Yelich, and how the Crew was able to tread water at 12-11 in his absence. As always, we did Untouchable Pitchers, Hot Hitters, Statcast, Standings, and Transactions. Around the Farm highlighted some incredible young arms in AAA and AA, and the Random Game in Brewers History took us all the way back to 1979. Stick around for the end where we previewed the upcoming schedule, hit on the beer of the week, and gave some automated strike zone and Monte Harrison thoughts at the end.

The Brewers are 3-1 since we last spoke, so we dove into the four game series that just wrapped up with the Cardinals. The biggest news of the series is that top pitching prospect Robert Gasser was called up to start on Friday and was great. One quarter of the season is over as we have hit the 40 game mark, and the Brewers have a small lead on the NL Central. We talked about the standouts through the first quarter of the season and a couple of studs in Appleton and Biloxi for our Around the Farm segment. The Random Game in Brewers History took us to 1994, where we tied it into the man who managed for the Cardinals on Sunday, Turner Ward. We wrapped up with the upcoming schedule, Beer of the Week, and some final thoughts relating to the Crew and the rest of the league.

Joey Ortiz was highlighted again as OUR everyday third baseman. Elvis Peguero continued to be a staple of the good Brewers bullpen. Bradley Blalock skipped AAA and was selected to join the team Monday which forced the Crew to DFA podcast favorite Thyago Vieira. Joey Wiemer was activated from the Injured List.

Scoop and Cole talked the series in Miami, the Crew at Fenway, and Craig Counsell's return to Milwaukee as the Cubs' manager. The Boston trip was highlighted by a William Contreras "Monster" shot and the benches clearing over bunts. The Brewers pulled out a big win against their old friend behind a Willy Adames Memorial Day home run. Robert Gasser continued the incredible start to his young MLB career, Enoli Paredes made his Brewers debut, and Bryan Hudson is playing like an All-Star. As always, we went around the league, touched on the standings, and took a trip Down on the Farm to highlight Chad Patrick's 12 K performance. We answered mailbag questions from our followers about who they would like the Brewers to target at the trade deadline. The Random Game in Brewers History took us to 2011 to talk about Craig Counsell's standing ovation in Arizona and how that ties into the 2023 playoffs and Memorial Day 2024.

The Brewers won both home series against the Blue Jays and Reds last week. Snoop Dogg’s first pitch and time in the booth highlighted what was a fun home stand. Bill Schroeder being recognized for 30 years of broadcasting with the team and Sal Frelick’s bobblehead added to weekend festivities. Colin Rea and Tobias Myers continue to pitch well, and Willy Adames and Joey Ortiz had some huge home runs. To start out their week in Cali, the Crew has split the first of two games against the Halos in Anaheim. Stick around for our trip back to 25 years ago for a big Jim Abbott moment!

The Brewers used 52 hits and 34 runs to sweep the Braves in Atlanta. Jackson Chourio has blossomed into a star over the last two months as he has been historically good for a player under the age of 21. Colin Rea seems to get eve. better every start he makes. William Contreras stuck it to his old team in the series. Willy Adames kicked off the series with a 4-hit, 2-homer night.

The Brewers went 6-1 to keep the hot Cubs 10 games back. Willy Adames homered in 5 straight games including number 29 on his 29th birthday, which also tied him with The Kid for most 3-run homers in a single season. Our version of The Kid is red hot as well and is in the thick of the NL Rookie of the Year race. The whole pitching staff was untouchable this week!
