    Brewers reporter Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe discuss some favorite memories and crazy numbers from CC Sabathia's magical run in 2008, even some factoids fans may not already be aware of. Sabathia was named to the Baseball Hall of Fame Class of 2025 on Tuesday, and his brief but unforgettable time with the Brewers surely played a role. One of the guys thinks the Brewers should seriously entertain retiring Sabathia's number (the other ... does not agree). Is the case a sound one?

    Catching up on the offseason moves thus far and the prospects who will matter in 2025 (11.13.2024)
    Curt and JR are back to revisit the many things that have happened in the offseason thus far, from a Silver Slugger to Gold Gloves to a bevy of roster moves that included the surprising departure of Colin Rea. Is there any lingering possibility that Willy Adames returns? How are the Brewers supposed to trade Devin Williams with an oversaturated free-agent market for relievers, and how are they supposed to address third base with an underabundance of players on the free-agent market at that spot? Where is this team going to improve? Is Roki Sasaki really a possibility? 

    Then, a longer look at the minor league names to know (1:04:00), both for 2025 and beyond.  What should we know about Brock Wilken, Cooper Pratt, Luis Lara, Jesus Made and more? Which player has the chance to make the biggest impact next year?

    We listened back to our preseason predictions and discussed how wrong we were (10.30.2024)
    Milwaukee Brewers reporter Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe listen back to their February preseason predictions and ... well, they weren't really very close with them, were they? The guys were wrong about Devin Williams, Aaron Ashby, Brock Wilken, Mark Attanasio, William Contreras, Tyler Black and more. First, they discuss the 2024 surprises and disappointments, plus a look at the team's annual award winners, a little coaching staff shakeup and maybe some World Series, if you're in to that sort of thing.

    We're still scratching our head over these Brewers things in 2024, plus some free-agent names to ponder (10.21.2024)
    The Brewers season ... still over, and now the Mets are done, too, after wreaking a little bit of extra postseason havoc. Could the Brewers have realistically hung with the Dodgers or Yankees in the playoffs? Brewers reporter Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe discuss a number of things this week, from the postseason press conference, to the second act of reliever Jake Cousins to some early predictions about how free agency will go and even some names to discuss. But they also revisit some 2024 mysteries that still leave them puzzled. Why did the team insist on playing Rhys Hoskins at first base and Jake Bauers at designated hitter? Why did Bryan Hudson not get a postseason spot? Why did William Contreras keep catching so often? Why did they play ABBA in Game 3?

    We've had some days to think about it, but it's still stunning. Brewers reporter Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe look at the things that went wrong for Milwaukee in its three-game series loss to the Mets. Is the franchise just plain cursed? How do they fix whatever problems they have? What are the foremost questions for the offseason and what's the early prognosis for 2025? Would JR have been a legend for predicting a Sal Frelick postseason homer, if Milwaukee had won the series?

    In one of the most heartbreaking losses in Brewers history, a four-run rally against Devin Williams propelled the New York Mets to a 4-2 victory Thursday at American Family Field, eliminating the Brewers from the 2024 postseason. Brewers reporter Todd Rosiak and host JR Radcliffe give it their best to provide some insight into what went wrong, both in this game and in the series.

    After epic Game 2 win, it's time for the winner-take-all battle Thursday. Are you ready? (10.02.2024)
    Brewers reporter Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe chat about the first two games of the wild-card series between the Mets and the Brewers, with the deciding game still to come Thursday at American Family Field. A fifth-inning meltdown proved costly in Game 1, and Pat Murphy's decision to pull Freddy Peralta proved controversial. But the team bounced back with a late rally, highlighted by now nationally famous superstar Jackson Chourio with a dose of heroics from Garrett Mitchell. How should the Brewers approach Game 3? They discuss on this edition of the Microbrew podcast.
