Episode 136 | All Time Brewers Fantasy Draft Apr 27, 2020

Show notes

With minimal baseball news to discuss this week, we decided to do a fantasy draft of all time Brewers. A player only needs to have played one game for the team to be eligible, but the choice of cumulative value versus peak is left up to you to decide. You can find a link to the results here.

We also discussed our ongoing efforts to help out local food banks, including Milwaukee's Hunger Task Force, by offering to match any donation made up to $500 total. We're at $275 dollars through Sunday the 26th, but still have some distance to go before reaching our goal. PLEASE DO NOT SEND MONEY TO US DIRECTLY, if you would like us to match your donation, please send a screencap of the receipt or other proof of donation to Milwaukees.Tailgate@gmail.com or tweet to @MKETailgate.

Major League Watch Party! Apr 17, 2020

Show notes

Hi Everyone!

Make sure you have your copy of Major League queued up as Paul, Brad, and Ryan are joined by Acme Packing Company's Tex Western and Jonathan Barnett to walk you through the 1989 classic. We walk through Milwaukee lore, the janitor from Scrubs, the Moneyball implications of the Indians, how Jobu is not a thing and pretty offensive, batting out of order to beat the Yankees, what was improvised, what was not, Corbin Burnes, Corbin Burneson, and the improbably record of the Duke. Plus Wesley Snipes awkward running.

Intro: Cleveland Tourism Video 1

We took Easter off this week, but wanted to bring you an excerpt of Brad and Ryan's interview with Fangraphs Lead Prospect Analyst Eric Longenhagen. We discussed his new book "Future Value" which is an in depth look at the modern scouting process and the men and women that do that work now. We also discussed a number of Brewers farm hands and touched on some larger trends in the game.

Also discussed were how Christian Yelich's contract might have been different if it had been just a little delayed, what having no 2020 season would mean for all the Brewers 2021 contract options and an extended trip down memory lane to talk about some of our earliest memories with the game of baseball.

Episode 133 | No Deuces In The Bucket Mar 30, 2020

Show notes

Steve rejoined the podcast for one week to reminisce about some opening day memories at Miller Park over the years. Apparently people get a little wild and irresponsible sometimes at those. Before that, though, the guys discussed the agreement between MLB and the players union on a framework for what this year might look like both in terms of getting back on the field and dealing with the draft. We also took a few listener questions, including one about David Stearns trade history.

Episode 132 | Don't You Hate That? Mar 23, 2020

Show notes

With baseball news scarce this week, we decided to bring you a draft of things we love about being a baseball fan, but with a major twist. We decided to draft things that we love to hate about our baseball rivals. Can't stand Go Cubs Go, #CardinalDevilMagic, Wrigley Field North or Marty Brennaman? Neither can we, and we got down in the muck and happily wallowed in our dislike of all things NL Central for your entertainment.
