Ben and Kyle open Thursday’s show with Ben admitting Kyle may have been right all along about the Brewers being unlikely to land Tarik Skubal. Jeff Passan and Ken Rosenthal’s reports push the conversation toward the Dodgers as the favorite, leaving Ben frustrated by baseball’s financial gap and Kyle reminding everyone that Milwaukee’s future remains loaded. The guys debate whether the Brewers can still compete without Skubal, why Matt Arnold cannot mortgage the future for a rental, and why a salary cap would help teams like Milwaukee keep stars instead of developing them for bigger markets. The hour then shifts to Jordan Love’s over-under numbers, with Kyle once again calling for Matt LaFleur to “liberate Love” and let the Packers quarterback carry the offense. Alex Strouf’s training camp report closes the hour with Christian Watson deep-ball reps, Matthew Golden flashes, Trey Smack kicking updates, and Javon Bullard punching the ball out for the defense.
