With another 5-2 week in the books, the Milwaukee Brewers can safely look ahead to the postseason with a month to go. Brewers reporter Todd Rosiak joins host JR Radcliffe to discuss the roster moves still to be made (or not made? Like Jacob Misiorowski?), the resurgent pitching performances of Aaron Ashby, Freddy Peralta and DL Hall, the sustained excellence of rookie Jackson Chourio and the steady strength of William Contreras and Willy Adames.

In Three Up Three Down, we're talking Blake Perkins home-run robberies, Jake Bauers saving the day and a Brewer on the Brewers. Remembrew When goes back to another 10-run inning, though one that didn't guarantee victory, and Todd's Take of the Week looks at the legacy of a player who's unlikely to return in 2025.

Then, JR chats with Aaron Ashby, who had an eye-opening week, one that has put him squarely in the conversation for a spot on the playoff roster. They talk Kansas City tailgate culture, the story behind his slider and the tumultuous journey that has been 2024.
