Due to travel, illnesses, etc., Paul is flying solo as he recaps an outstanding week from the Brewers that saw their offense snap back to a true force.

Jaymes and Paul discuss the rough series in San Diego, the much better series in LA, the Luis Rengifo turnaround, the odds of five consecutive singles, the Big Guys Playing Defense experiment, and why and when it's smart, and whether there is any hope that the offense returns to its early season form.

Jaymes and Spencer cover the exhausting trade deadline discourse over the Brewers not getting Tarik Skubal, what the Brewers are getting instead in Dustin May, Pat Murphy finally getting fed up with Brandon Sproat, and more.Support the podcast on Patreon and receive the Monthly Minor League Extra and Weekly Packers Preview.Music: Fair Weather Fans by The Baseball Project, recorded live at WFMU
