11.16.2018: Christian Yelich is the MVP and Craig Counsell is runner-up for manager of the year

Nov 16, 2018, 11:00 AM

Brewers beat reporter Tom Haudricourt joins host JR Radcliffe to discuss the Baseball Writers Association of America votes for manager of the year and MVP, where Craig Counsell finished second and Christian Yelich won, as expected. They look back at Yelich's September for the ages, the determining factors to his win and that Jan. 25 evening when the team acquired him in the first place.

Where did Counsell make the most difference this season, and would Counsell even be in the manager's chair if not in Milwaukee?

Tom then discusses the offseason briefly, and should Brewers fans read ANYTHING into the departure of both the hitting and pitching coach for the same jobs elsewhere?
