Episode 26: Craig Counsell Returns to Milwaukee

Scoop and Cole talked the series in Miami, the Crew at Fenway, and Craig Counsell's return to Milwaukee as the Cubs' manager. The Boston trip was highlighted by a William Contreras "Monster" shot and the benches clearing over bunts. The Brewers pulled out a big win against their old friend behind a Willy Adames Memorial Day home run. Robert Gasser continued the incredible start to his young MLB career, Enoli Paredes made his Brewers debut, and Bryan Hudson is playing like an All-Star. As always, we went around the league, touched on the standings, and took a trip Down on the Farm to highlight Chad Patrick's 12 K performance. We answered mailbag questions from our followers about who they would like the Brewers to target at the trade deadline. The Random Game in Brewers History took us to 2011 to talk about Craig Counsell's standing ovation in Arizona and how that ties into the 2023 playoffs and Memorial Day 2024. Stick around for the weekly Untouchable Pitchers, Hot Hitters, Statcast, and Beer of the Week.
