AUDIO via Matt Pauley's Brewers Extra Innings Podcast Sun. 12/17: "A quiet winter meetings has Brewers fans anxious but there is still a lot of off-season left. While GM David Stearns has not pulled off a "big move", he has reportedly brought pitcher Yovani Gallardo back to the Crew. Is there reason to worry that a top-line pitcher has not yet been acquired? What does Gallardo have left in the tank? Matt will touch on these subjects and more. Matt will also be joined by Disciples of Uecker editor Gabe Stoltz, who will share his opinions."

AUDIO via "The Road to the Show Podcast" 10/12: "Tim Dillard aka the funniest man in baseball stops by to share how he got started making funny videos while in professional baseball. Tim has just completed his 15th season. Playing in the MLB has always been his ultimate goal and he has achieved that dream. He is now working hard to get back there. Baseball is such a tough sport and when you listen to this episode you get reminded that you need to have fun, it is a kids game after all."

AUDIO via "The Road to the Show Podcast" 11/28: "The most well-rounded person in the MLB, Brent Suter is a unique person. A 31st round pick out of Harvard who throws a ball against a mattress in the off-season to get his arm in shape, Brent doesn't make excuses. Brent was an environmental science major in college and uses his platform to spread the word about the importance of taking care of the planet we live on. It took him longer than it should have to make it to the MLB because he doesn't have over powering stuff. He didn't complain just kept putting up numbers at every stop in the minors. Now he's a big leaguer and someone who has a chance to be pitching in the big leagues for several years to come."

 

Listen for one moment Brent describes after a particularly ugly outing for Helena, makes you realize how fleeting chances are and can be.

Really good David Stearns interview overall, but the 11:50 mark is an especially intriguing tease...

 

“What are the chances that between now and spring training, there will be a roster move that moves the needle in a big way for Brewers fans? One way or the other?”

 

Stearns: “Boy, I am not good at handicapping these things, but I will say that we are certainly talking about moves that we think would meaningfully impact our team. Some of them have been maybe overly exaggerated in the press. And then there are some things that we are working on that haven’t been discussed publicly at all. So, we’ll keep you guys guessing for a little while longer, but we are certainly working on things and I will say this, it would not surprise me if we make a substantive move between now and Spring Training.”

Not just “at Night” anymore.
