A great week ends in a clinch, but there's a really big catch. Plus: An interview with Jackson Chourio (09.22.2025)
The Milwaukee Brewers are National League Central champion after a 4-2 week, but Sunday's champagne celebration also came with the knowledge that starter Brandon Woodruff is likely out for another postseason. Brewers reporter Todd Rosiak joins host JR Radcliffe to discuss the implication of an injury-riddled week, with unsettling developments on Trevor Megill, José Quintana and William Contreras, not to mention Woodruff. Is Jacob Misiorowski of being left off the postseason roster altogether? Same for Rhys Hoskins? Are the Brewers better off as the 2-seed, when they wouldn't wind up facing the Cubs in the division series? Don't worry, there's still time to meditate on the marvel of the Milwaukee Brewers putting themselves on the cusp of setting a franchise record for wins while maintaining the best record in baseball.
In Three Up Three Down (39:45), the guys discuss yet another standout showing from Quinn Priester, a defensive play that saved Saturday's game and the exorcism of an old playoff demon. In Remembrew When (54:00), JR looks back at the first clinch (and an epic Bob Uecker call). In Todd's Take of the Week (58:00), some advice for Brewers fans as they embark on yet another postseason journey.
Then, JR chats with Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio (1:02:30), joined by team translator Daniel de Mondesert. They discuss his Venezuelan upbringing, his transition to stateside baseball and those playoff home runs last season.
