About this episode

Brewers broadcaster Jeff Levering discusses the team's pitching strategy and player performances as they prepare for the postseason.

Brewers broadcaster Jeff Levering joins Jen, Gabe and Chewy after Milwaukee’s brutal loss to the Cubs and explains why Kyle Harrison’s velocity is a legitimate concern. Levering views September as an “open audition” for several Brewers pitchers as the club determines who can be trusted in the postseason. He also explains why he would still start Harrison in Cincinnati rather than skip his turn. Plus, Levering discusses Jackson Chourio’s remarkable production at just 22 years old, potential September call-ups, Christian Yelich and how Pat Murphy could mix and match the lineup heading into October.
