Brandon Woodruff is back, but the offense has stayed the same, plus a conversation with Mark Canha (08.07.2023)

Milwaukee Brewers Microbrew

Brandon Woodruff made his long-awaited return to the big-league mound on Sunday and looked great, part of a week that featured several players returning from injury. But with the trade deadline come and gone, the Brewers offense still failed to provide ample support, and the team went 3-4 against lower-tier opponents. And still, Milwaukee finds itself in first place in the NL Central.
Brewers reporter Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe discuss Woodruff's outing, the struggles of Willy Adames, the trade-deadline acquisitions and more. Will Colin Rea or Julio Teheran make another start for the Brewers this year? Could minor leaguer Tyler Black be part of the answer?
Plus: Brice Turang's number change, The Blake Perkins Game and a Wisconsinite going viral are all part of Three Up Three Down, and Remembrew When looks back at an early 1990s brawl. In Curt Blanche, Curt has an aggressive take.
Then, JR sits down with new Brewers outfielder Mark Canha (59:00) to discuss his Oakland roots, the impressive start to his career with the A's and what food suggestions Mets teammate Daniel Vogelbach had for Milwaukee.
