S2, E4: Kolten Wong is a Brewer! The Brewers finally make a move to bolster their roster heading into the 2021 campaign, and it’s the top defensive second baseman and former divisional foe. Was the Wong signing the right move to make for a cash-strapped Crew? How will he fit in with the thin crop of position players? Will Hiura be able to handle first base in light of the move?
This takes the Brewers out of the running for Justin Turner, right? Reports have surfaced that they’re still interested in Turner, and first baseman/right fielder Shin-Soo Choo. Does this mean Ryan Braun’s career is all but over?
And lastly, how does the Brewers’ current roster stack up against their division rivals? Are the Cardinals now the team to beat? What can we make of the Cubs sans Darvish, Lester, and Schwarber? We cover a lot in today’s episode, from the biggest offseason move to the low-profile Blaine Hardy acquisition.
