The Milwaukee Brewers went on an unprecedented offensive outburst, wrapping up an eventful week with a 5-1 record and smashing sweep of the Nationals. Brewers writer Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe break down the team with the best record in baseball, even though there were some hiccups as well like injuries to Jackson Chourio, Sal Frelick and Jacob Misiorowski. The trade deadline came and went, and the Brewers have a couple new players, including Wisconsin native Danny Jansen. Did they miss an opportunity at the deadline or simply follow their successful model? Plus: William Contreras gets white hot but goes under the microscope for baserunning, the Andrew Vaughn Experience continues apace, and will this injury keep Misiorowski from the Rookie of the Year? In Three Up Three Down (41:00), the guys discuss pocket pancakes, the massive Brewers-White Sox connection and Craig Yoho. In Remembrew When (54:45), JR connects Andrew Vaughn to a player from Milwaukee Braves lore. In Curt Blanche (58:30), Curt gives his final thoughts on the trade deadline. Then, JR sits down with Brewers relief pitcher Easton McGee (1:02:00), chatting about his hard-luck career arc, the challenges of his time with the Brewers and Kentucky basketball.
