Playoffs end swiftly for the Brewers, and we're still processing. What held this team back? (10.05.2023)

Brewers reporter Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe discuss the team's two losses to Arizona in the wild-card series, bringing the 2023 season to a screeching halt. Is the sustained lack of success in the playoffs really just a series of bad breaks, or something bigger? How did the Brandon Woodruff injury derail the dream from the start? Rough outings for Corbin Burnes, Devin Williams and (one bad inning, anyway) Freddy Peralta. Jesse Winker really got two postseason at-bats? What are the expectations for manager Craig Counsell returning to the team? Plus, a look at the moments that could have turned the tide (Evan Longoria? Really?) and the bigger question of how to evaluate the 2023 campaign. Was this success?
