Ryan Braun discusses the Brewers' trade deadline, pitching lab, and the importance of postseason experience for young hitters.

Ryan Braun gives the Brewers’ pitching lab the benefit of the doubt with May and Romero, saying the organization has a strong track record of unlocking better versions of pitchers. He also discusses what trade deadline day feels like inside a clubhouse, why postseason experience matters for young hitters, and why he would be open-minded about calling up Jesús Made if Milwaukee does not add a major bat.
