Cold Brew Podcast

Co-hosts David Gasper and Matt Carroll have a lot to discuss this week. It's the last podcast before pitchers and catchers report and spring training begins! There's news about Aaron Ashby being injured and how that will affect the roster picture, plus David and Matt dive into the World Baseball Classic rosters that have been announced. There are Brewers all over the place and Milwaukee will be well represented in this tournament. Also, Ben Sheets has been elected to the Brewers Walk Of Fame. That's well deserved for him but there are plenty others who are deserving of induction. David and Matt draft their Top 5 Walk of Fame snubs. 

Co-hosts David Gasper and Matt Carroll dive into the Brewers poor decision to take their ace Corbin Burnes to arbitration over a small amount of money in a battle that they won't win no matter what as well as the addition of Brian Anderson and so much more.

Co-hosts David Gasper and Matt Carroll are back for Season 4 of the Cold Brew Podcast! The Brewers started their new year out with a couple of moves, signing an old friend in Wade Miley to a free agent deal, claiming a former Top 100 prospect, and trading away an oft-injured reliever. Plus there's the retirement of a friend of the podcast. All that and more on the first episode of season 4 of the Cold Brew Pod!

It's the end of the year! After a long and tumultuous 2022, the year is coming to an end and before we look ahead to 2023, co-hosts David Gasper and Matt Carroll go back through the biggest Brewers stories from the past 365 days. There was a lockout, a couple of massive trades, a front office shakeup, and a scathing criticism of the organization. We go through it all and recap the year that was 2022 as we wrap up Season 3 of the Cold Brew Podcast. Up next, Season 4!

Co-hosts David Gasper and Matt Carroll are joined this week by Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel's Brewers beat writer Curt Hogg. Curt, David, and Matt discuss the moves made that set up this offseason, how they were able to pull off the William Contreras trade, and what's left for the Brewers to do this offseason. They haven't been active in free agency and have some money to spend and we dive into the remaining options there. Plus, more on prospects that could help out this season and extension candidates. Who are the Brewers most likely to extend and what is the current situation with Willy Adames, Corbin Burnes, and Brandon Woodruff? Check it all out and more on this week's Cold Brew Podcast.

Co-hosts David Gasper and Matt Carroll take you through a wild week in Milwaukee Brewers news. First, Matt mourns the departure of his beloved Mario Feliciano from the 40 man roster. Feliciano was DFAed after the Brewers acquired utility infielder Owen Miller from the Cleveland Guardians so we discuss that trade and impact it will have. The big, big news of the week was the trade for William Contreras along with two relievers only in exchange for Esteury Ruiz, and we dive into every angle of that trade, how the Brewers upgraded, and how this trade came together. Also, what does trading Ruiz for Contreras mean for the legacy of the Josh Hader trade? We dive into it all on this episode of the Cold Brew Podcast.

Co-hosts Dave Gasper and Matt Carroll discuss a lot of big Brewers news over the last week. Kolten Wong has been traded to the Mariners and it's a much better looking deal than the Renfroe trade, but we dissect that move and the mild surprise we felt. Also, the Winter Meetings were this week and there's a lot to talk about with rumored trade targets, comments from Craig Counsell about the Hader trade and a highly touted prospect, plus we discuss the results of the first MLB Draft Lottery and the Rule 5 Draft, where the Brewers made their first selection in several years. Finally, we get to some recent juicy rumors about the Brewers potential acquisitions.

It was a busy week in the news for the Milwaukee Brewers. Co-hosts David Gasper and Matt Carroll are here to break it all down this Thanksgiving week. Hunter Renfroe has been traded for three pitchers. David and Matt discuss what we can expect from those young arms and why this trade felt so underwhelming. Also, the Renfroe trade was followed by news that Kolten Wong may be the next to go in a trade, but it's not all sad news. The Brewers have opened extension talks with Willy Adames, so David and Matt dive into the Brewers history at shortstop and why extending Adames is so important for the franchise. Also in this episode, the non-tender decisions, including the departure of Brent Suter, as well as another minor trade and minor free agent signing. 

The offseason Hot Stove is kicking into high gear. Co-hosts David Gasper and Matt Carroll discuss the latest Milwaukee Brewers news this week including several rumors involving trade candidates such as Kolten Wong and Hunter Renfroe, as well as where Omar Narvaez might go next year. Also, the Brewers did announce several new additions to the 40 man roster to protect them from the Rule 5 Draft, including one outside the box candidate that might spell the end of an era for a different Brewers player in a Milwaukee uniform.
