Milwaukee Brewers Microbrew

Brewers reporter Todd Rosiak and host JR Radcliffe look back on a productive 4-2 week for the Brewers, where their brand of baseball made a comeback, backed by superb starting-pitching performances. Brandon Sproat has his first excellent outing, Coleman Crow has a dazzling debut, Jacob Misiorowski continued to look good in losses and Chad Patrick and Brandon Woodruff worked deep into games. The...

The Brewers had a brutal week, suffering a five-game losing streak for the first time since mid-2023 and playing some of those games in jerseys that nobody seems to like. The pitchers are struggling, particularly in the bullpen. Christian Yelich left Sunday's game ominously. The defense has been suspect. The hitting has been suspect. The Brewers have gone from 8-2 to barely above .500, and that...

The early returns remain positive for the Milwaukee Brewers, now out to a 7-2 start in 2026 after series wins against the Rays and Royals. Garrett Mitchell has a breakout game and confounds us still, the bullpen has been concerning a bit, and the rotation has been excellent (with one exception). Brewers reporter Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe look back on the week and start with the most...

Brandon Lockridge's big spring got him a spot. Jake Bauers has been raking. Jacob Misiorowski is the opening-day starter but once again, what is going on with Brandon...

The news has been so limited from Brewers camp that JR recorded this while watching the Oscars and Curt while watching the World Baseball Classic. Is no news good news? Or should there be some alarm that the Brewers have some of the same question marks they had last year? How concerned should we be about Quinn Priester's injury? What's been going on with Christian Yelich? Is Andrew Fischer going...

Curt Hogg is in Arizona and sniffing around at Milwaukee Brewers camp, with some observations he'd like to share on this episode, hosted by JR Radcliffe. The two Milwaukee Journal Sentinel colleagues discuss the plight of Brandon Woodruff, the Quinn Priester injury, the promise of Kyle Harrison and Brandon Sproat and ... have we ruled out Aaron Ashby as a starter for sure? Plus: The center field...
