Brewers serve payback to Mets, Dodgers getting help from IL & deflated Cubs fall to rival Cardinals

Heading into the weekend, the Milwaukee Brewers had revenge on their minds for the last time they played the New York Mets at home. The Mets staged a dramatic comeback in the 2024 postseason and knocked out the Brew Crew. However, things were a little different this time in Milwaukee, with the Brewers dishing out a sweep of the Amazin’s.

Jordan Shusterman is joined by guest host Lance Brozdowski of Marquee Sports Network to break down whether what the Brewers are doing is truly sustainable and to analyze the remarkable season from Brandon Woodruff thus far. They then recap all the other sweeps, including the Philadelphia Phillies beginning to pull away from the Mets and the Seattle Mariners starting to nip at the heels of the Houston Astros in the AL West.

Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jordan and Lance talk about the Chicago Cubs looking deflated in their series loss to the St. Louis Cardinals, the New York Yankees continuing to struggle as former champions were celebrated during Old Timers’ Day in the Bronx and the Los Angeles Dodgers getting much-needed help with players coming off the injured list. They also recap all the other action from around the league this weekend.
