Previewing the postseason, as much as we can without an opponent (09.30.2024)

We've reached the end of 162 games and the Milwaukee Brewers won 93 of them. How ... is that possible? Milwaukee Journal Sentinel writer Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe look at the final week of the season, but mostly look ahead to an unusual circumstance, where the playoff opponent is unclear until Monday's makeup games. The Brewers will begin postseason play at home Tuesday against either New York or Arizona, at least we know that much. Which team is the better matchup? How big of a loss is Sal Frelick after an injury over the weekend? Is there any fleeting possibility that Willy Adames returns next year? What other postseason roster decisions are still top of mind, including Bryan Hudson?

In Three Up Three Down, Brice Turang reaches 50 steals, Freddy Peralta hits a milestone and a home-plate umpire gets caught on a hot mic. Remembrew When pays homage to the rando succeeding in the postseason, and Curt Blanche provides a grateful end to the 2024 regular season.
