09.16.2019: They don't have Christian Yelich but they still have a really good shot
Sep 16, 2019, 10:00 AM
Todd Rosiak discusses the brutal injury to Christian Yelich but also the Brewers surging playoff hopes after winning 9 of 10 games. Plus, a conversation with Chris Hook.
Brewers beat reporter Todd Rosiak joins host JR Radcliffe to discuss the crushing loss of Christian Yelich to injury last week. Yet, the Brewers are in the midst of a hot streak that has them right in the thick of the playoff chase. Could they really still do this without Yelich? Are his MVP chances kaput (spoiler: not necessarily)? When will reinforcements like Keston Hiura and Brandon Woodruff arrive? Will the team lean on Ryan Braun down the stretch after his heroic grand slam Sunday? Will Yasmani Grandal catch every inning the rest of the way?
Then, JR chats with Brewers first-year pitching coach Chris Hook, who's been riding the wave of the up-and-down Brewers season. How does his ascension to the big leagues compare to his ascension as a player?
