8AM: Ride the Hot Hand With Joey Ortiz

Joey Ortiz has become one of baseball’s hottest hitters, and Gabe and Chewy say the Brewers need to stop overthinking the matchups and keep him in the lineup every day. They also discuss Bryce Turang’s workload, Sal Frelick’s time in Triple-A and whether there’s any reason for concern after Dustin May’s rough outing against Seattle. Top 8 at 8 challenges the guys to name the Packers with the most interceptions during the Matt LaFleur era. The conversation shifts to reported trade interest in Carrington Valentine and whether the Packers should even consider moving one of their cornerbacks. Chewy draws on his NFL experience to explain why players competing for jobs need to remember that, despite all the talk about family and loyalty, the NFL is ultimately a business.
