Brewers are 30 games above .500; are we crazy to still have concerns? Plus: A conversation with Luis Lara, and others (08.10.2026)

An eventful homestand featured the Brewers going 5-2, even with some pitching struggles and week-ending injuries that have left the Brewers a little thin on reliable options. A Sunday walk-off capped a week that vaulted the Brewers 30 games above .500. Brewers reporter Todd Rosiak and host JR Radcliffe dive in on the struggles of the rotation's back end, the arrival of Dustin May and his Brewers debut, the other newcomers to the roster, a fascinating week for Christian Yelich, a change of scenery for Brandon Sproat and the encouraging showings by Kyle Harrison and Logan Henderson.In Three Up Three Down (29:30), they discuss hot runs from Jackson Chourio and Andrew Vaughn, an uncomfortable moment for Cooper Pratt and a newcomer out of nowhere. In Remembrew When (42:30), JR commemorates Dustin May's arrival with another mid-summer red-headed acquisition. After Todd's Take of the Week (50:30), JR has a trio of interviews.Newly acquired Pirates reliever Lake Bachar (55:00) attended UW-Whitewater and first made his name as a kicker on the national-championship football team. Connor Prielipp (1:02:10) hails from Tomah and started against his childhood team (and Jacob Misiorowski) on Sunday. And then, it's new outfielder Luis Lara (1:02:10), whose ridiculous catches Sunday proved massive in Milwaukee's 4-3 win.
