The Sal Frelick Game and how the Brewers thrived in the 2023 draft with Jim Callis (07.24.2023)
Jul 24, 2023, 10:00 AM
Sal Frelick, the new mayor of Milwaukee. Journal Sentinel reporter Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe discuss a magical Saturday night in Milwaukee with a debut for the ages, the highlight of a 3-3 week. There's also plenty of trade deadline discussion as we get closer. Do we dare say the name Shohei Ohtani earnestly? They're definitely trading for a bat ... right? Right? They revisit some recurring themes: Jesse Winker, Keston Hiura, Freddy Peralta's struggles, a bullpen of hammers and more.
Remembrew When recounts a debut most Brewers fans have probably forgotten, and in Curt Blanche, Curt admits he's changed his mind about something pretty big.
Then, JR is joined by Jim Callis (1:00:00), senior writer for MLB.com, who discusses the Brewers draft and the savvy with which they added high-profile prep players in the third and sixth round. How does the slot value calculus work, exactly, on draft day? How were the Brewers able to pull the heist, and is it weird that the third and sixth rounders are the ones with so much buzz?
