Surprise! It's a mid-week episode of Microbrew, where host JR Radcliffe is joined by Spencer Michaelis of Brewer Fanatic to get a full deep dive on the state of the Brewers highly regarded minor-league system. That includes several players in spring training this year and players who will contribute mightily over the next two years.

They discuss what traits allow the Brewers to shine, the shift from a pitching haven to a hitters paradise, the reasons we should be stoked for Jesús Made and Luis Peña, a trio of future (or present?) third-base options, the players most likely to impact the team in 2026, the best pitchers in the organization now that Jacob Misiorowski and Logan Henderson are with the big-league team, the breakout stars in waiting, whom we're likely to see if we visit High A in Appleton and a few guys still below your radar. For now.

We'll be back Monday morning with our usual episode focusing on the big-league team.
