A conversation with Devin Williams and breaking down the white-hot Brewers with the Cubs up next (08.28.2023)

Aug 28, 2023, 10:00 AM

The Milwaukee Brewers are on a roll, winners of eight straight heading into a pivotal battle with the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. Brewers reporter Todd Rosiak and host JR Radcliffe discuss the successful run and what's allowed Milwaukee to turn a corner offensively. William Contreras has certainly helped, but so has health and a couple surprising players emerging in the bullpen. Who are the likely names to add in September? Rowdy Tellez returns. Brewers owner Mark Attanasio discusses Craig Counsell's future in Milwaukee, and the franchise honors CC Sabathia and Ben Sheets.

Three Up, Three Down takes a look at Brice Turang's big week, Josh Hader returning (but not pitching!) for the Padres, and a huge defensive play by Christian Yelich (but also some decline on offense).

Remembrew When looks back at the home stretch of the 2008 season, and Todd's Take of the Week looks ahead to the Cubs.

Then, Curt Hogg sits down with two-time all-star closer Devin Williams (1:00:15), who had another great week and has been sensational for the Brewers all season.
