The Andruw Monasterio episode and a layman's explanation of the stadium financing situation (06.05.2023)

The Brewers belong to Andruw Monasterio now. Brewers reporter Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe look at the remarkable week for the newcomer infielder and a Reds series that has breathed new life into the Brewers. Is the continued success of Adrian Houser for real? What about Julio Teheran? The Pittsburgh Pirates? Plus: Corbin Burnes' struggles call for a deeper dive, the amazing story of Jon Singleton, an enigmatic bullpen, a great week for Joey Wiemer and Remembrew When commemorating another first home run/grand slam ... igniting a debate between Curt and JR.

Then, JR is joined by Milwaukee Journal Sentinel business reporter Tom Daykin to take a deeper (and hopefully easy-to-understand) look at the Brewers stadium financing situation, one that received more attention with MLB commissioner Rob Manfred in town last week. They talk about all the different political angles, the financial realities and whether or not the Brewers are truly in danger of leaving town after 2030.
