Are we sure this is a good defensive team? Plus: A conversation with Quinn Priester (04.28.2025)

The Brewers suffered through an ugly 2-5 week in which defensive miscues played a huge role in the losses. What's up with the defense? Brewers reporter Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe discuss that, the struggles of Joey Ortiz, the return of Tobias Myers, the injury to Garrett Mitchell and the dawn of Craig Yoho. Two players got benched over the weekend; is that generally a good idea at the MLB level?

In Three Up Three Down (46:00), Devin Williams is out as closer in New York and an eventful day for Jackson Chourio. Remembrew When (1:03:00) looks back at another instance of a player getting benched for miscues and Curt Blanche checks in on some interesting Willy Adames comments (1:09:00).

Then, JR visits with starting pitcher Quinn Priester (1:13:45), the midseason acquisition who's trying to fortify a hobbled starting rotation. Among the topics: His affinity for the Chicago Bears and the family members who prefer the Packers side of the rivalry.
