Locked On Brewers- Daily Podcast On The Milwaukee Brewers

It feels like Murphy's Law again, everything that can go wrong, will go wrong. The Brewers have relied on their bullpen heavily, the bats have mounting pressure with runners in scoring position, odd errors have come at the worst of times. The Brewers just finished a tough homestand but with non-contending Cubs and Pirates teams that take four of seven from the Crew at home.

Dom (@Dom_Cotroneo) shares your concerns with the offense, but wants to remind the fans that the fix could come as fast as the slump has arrived. And it may not be how you think. We look back on the weekend, look ahead to the second half, and talk about All-Star snubs.

The Brewers enjoyed an off day on Thursday, so let's open up the mailbag for this episode. Dom (@Dom_Cotroneo) answers your questions from Twitter about the Brewers ... which mostly devolved to who are they trading for. But Dom came ready with an entire list of position players that you may have heard rumors about or have on your wish list ahead of the August 2nd deadline.

Dom also gives kudos to the two prospects named the MLB Futures Game during All-Star Week that will represent the Brewers. Outfielder Jackson Chourio and left-handed pitcher Antoine Kelly each earned the nod to head to Los Angeles and play among the Minors' best.

Now the Crew prepares for another matchup with the Pirates, after the four-game split last weekend in PNC Park. The City Connect jerseys are back again tonight, and new grill logo hats are available in the team store too. Hurry to grab em this weekend!

Corbin Burnes tossed seven shutout innings with 10 strikeouts yet did not factor in the decision for the Brewers as the Cubs rallied late to win 2-1 over the Crew and claim the three-game series. Burnes tied Yovani Gallardo for the most double-digit strikeout games in franchise history, but yet doesn't earn a win out of it.

The Brewers offense could only muster one run - thanks to a Keston Hiura solo homer in the fifth inning. Brad Boxberger blew the lead and then Josh hader took the loss in the ninth after allowing a two-out double. Dom (@Dom_Cotroneo) vents along with the fans the frustrations that they are experiencing watching the offense right now.

Tuesday's game started as well as you could have wanted for the Brewers with a two-run homer from Rowdy Tellez. The Crew would hold that lead until the fifth inning when the wheels came off in back to back innings against the Cubs in an 8-3 defeat. Milwaukee starter Jason Alexander was saddled with his first big league loss working into the sixth inning and allowing seven runs.

It wasn't entirely on Alexander though, there were two errors by the Brewers and a couple of other miscues that led to runs including a 1st & 3rd double steal and failed double plays turned. But the biggest issue was the inconsistent offense yet again for the Crew.

Dom (@Dom_Cotroneo) takes a peek at the prospects that the Brewers could be sending in a quest for more offense. It's a great reminder that today is the anniversary of the Brewers acquiring Rowdy Tellez ... who will it be all about this year?

July 4th, 2022 will be added to the days of legendary Brewer walk-offs in the team's history. Saying the game was a thriller is simply selling it short. This game had everything: an inside-the-park home run, a redemption arc, a revenge arc, a bounce-back performance, an "ice in his veins" outing, the best pitch in baseball, and so much more.

Simply put, Victor Caratini hit a walk-off three-run homer in the tenth inning to give the Brewers a 5-2 win in the series opener with the Cubs. The catcher connected on his second career walk-off homer and the Brewers' second walk-off homer this season.

Dom (@Dom_Cotroneo) takes you through the zany recap, five plays you may have forgotten about, and tries to make sense of the current lineup and roster. We also saw the debut of Pedro Severino in his return from his 80-game PED suspension. There is a lot to unpack, sit tight and enjoy an extended episode of Locked On Brewers!

Happy Fourth of July! The Brewers split the series with the Pirates thanks to their sixth shutout of the season on Sunday led by Brandon Woodruff. The starter handled six strong innings with eight strikeouts and no walks to continue his strong form since he was activated off the injured list. Woodruff's battery mate Omar Narvaez supplied the only offense needed in the 5th with a two-run no doubt 427 foot blast - the longest homer of his career.

All in all, most fans won't be happy with a 2-2 split with the Pirates. Dom (@Dom_Cotroneo) goes through the biggest moments of the weekend and gives plenty of roster updates such as Adrian Houser, Pedro Severino, Tyrone Taylor, and more.

Next, the Brewers return home for a six-game homestand over the next seven days - three apiece with the Cubs and the Pirates. As the Crew reaches the halfway point, how do they compare to last season? What's left to resolve before the All-Star Break?

Michael Perez??!? Wow, what a game for the Pirates backstop, his first career multi-homer game featured THREE round trippers - including the ultimate insurance run to keep the Buccos ahead 8-7 the final. The Brewers rallied with three runs in the top of the ninth inning, but left the go-ahead run stranded on first base. In the loss, the Brewers streak of 13 straight games with a homer was snapped - matching an MLB season-long streak for any team.

Also in the loss, the Brewers lost another starter due to injury. Adrian Houser exited the game in the third inning with what the Brewers called "right elbow tightness." The bad news comes on the heels of the positive note that the Brewers will get Aaron Ashby back into the starting rotation on Saturday. Houser will return to Milwaukee for further testing to determine the severity of his injury and will be placed on the injured list.

So how will the Brewers fill his spot in the rotation? What about the offense is a positive note to take home? How can the Brewers rebound and still win this four-game series? @Dom_Cotroneo has the answers in today's episode!

Milwaukee used every inch of Tropicana Field to claim both games of their brief two-gamer with the Tampa Bay Rays - literally. Two more homers on Wednesday clanged off the catwalks high above the field - AKA the "C Ring" good enough for homers in the 5-3 victory. Rowdy Tellez added his second multi-homer game of the week while Luis Urías and Jace Peterson also added homers to fuel the victory. Offensively, the Brewers got just enough in both games to take the sweep over the team firmly in the AL Wild Card picture.

The bullpen was also rock solid for the Crew. The "A" unit was available again on Wednesday as the bullpen tossed the final 4.2 innings scoreless as both Devin Williams and Josh Hader left runners on base in their innings. Dom (@Dom_Cotroneo) goes through the good, the bad, and the concerning from Eric Lauer and the rest of the team as they prepare for a breather: 10 straight games against non-contenders. That stretch starts tonight in Pittsburgh with the first of four games with the Buccos.

Brandon Woodruff returned from the injured list on Tuesday after just over a month away dealing with an ankle issue and newly discovered Raynaud's Syndrome. His start was a welcomed sight for the Brew Crew: five dominant innings with ten strikeouts and no walks en route to the win as the Brewers won 5-3 over the Rays. The start was the fifth time in Woodruff's career he reached double-digit strikeouts without yielding a walk.

Kolten Wong also returned for the Brewers and added a key double in the big sixth inning for the Crew that put them in front for good. A pair of two-run homers from Andrew McCutchen and Luis Urías led the way for Milwaukee in the opener of the road trip. Tuesday also marked Willy Adames's return to Tropicana Field along with Mike Brosseau, Hunter Renfroe, and hitting coach Ozzie Timmons.

Dom (@Dom_Cotroneo) breaks down Woodruff's start with the numbers and also tries to explain the manager decisions in the 6th and 8th innings while the game hung in the balance.

Rowdy Tellez was a man on a mission on Sunday in the rubber match of a three-game set with the Toronto Blue Jays as the Milwaukee Brewers claimed the finale and the series to cap the homestand. The Blue Jays claimed the opener 9-4 behind a strong effort from Alek Manoah, but the Brewers responded with great arms of their own with an incredible Corbin Burnes start on Saturday then an all-hands performance on Sunday.

The Brewer bats continued to show signs of life slugging 10 runs and Tellez contributing a pair of homers on Sunday. Plus previously on Saturday they received a homer from Mike Brosseau and Andrew McCutchen each in the winning effort. At the end of the weekend, the Brewers claimed their first series win at home since the Nats series on May 21st.

Now the Brewers enjoy an off day (and we will too, so no podcast tomorrow!) and prepare to head to the Trop for a quick two-gamer in Tampa Bay before continuing on to Pittsburgh. You can follow our show account @LockedOnBrewers and host @Dom_Cotroneo for all of the latest news ahead of the week!
