We're a third of the way through our 2025 Season Review Series and this time we're talking about the Milwaukee Brewers!

Despite being a Cubs fan, Cal & Dan have stitched up Gaz by making him do this one solo - but he is joined by Chris from 9 Inning Nomad!

The Brewers had an excellent season in 2025, finishing with the best record in baseball with a record of 97-65, finishing top of the NL Central and getting a first round bye in the playoffs!

They took on their NL Central rival the Chicago Cubs in the NLDS and won 3-2 before getting swept by the Dodgers in the NLCS 4-0!

Despite Willy Adames leaving in free agency, the Brewers were actually better in 2025 - led offensively by franchise icon Christian Yelich and young upstart Jackson Chourio!

It was the year of the underrated trades by the Brewers, as they traded for both Quinn Priester and Andrew Vaughan, both of these went under the radar. Well come the end of the season, there are arguments that these were 2 of the most impactful trades of the year!

The rotation was anchored down by long-time ace Freddy Peralta and they also got meaningful contributions from youngsters Chad Patrick and Jacob Misirowski!

Pat Murphy is leading a very youthful organisation in Milwaukee and him and his pocket pancakes may be laughing all the way to the NL Central again next year!

Joining Gaz on this episode is Chris from 9 Inning Nomad!

So have a listen as we review the team with the best record in baseball and Chris gives us his insight into what 2026 may hold for the Brewers - Happy Listening!

It's time for our first Season Review Series of the New Year - so we thought we'd begin our year in familiar territory with Dan's Baltimore Orioles!

Joining Cal & Dan on this episode is Sports Man Dan (Dan's alter ego)!

The Orioles had a pretty poor season in 2025, finishing with a record of 75-87, which led to a 5th place finish in the AL East!

The Orioles' season got off to a terrible start and by mid-May, it seemed like the writing was on the wall. Gunnar Henderson wasn't hitting much and with the loss of Santander in free agency, it was a real struggle for the offense in the early going!

It wasn't much better on the pitching side, with Grayson Rodriguez going down injured early on in the season and Felix Bautista also ending the year on the injured list - the rotation really struggled in the early months of the season!

Cue the return of Trevor Rogers to the rotation - who pitched to a 9-3 record with a 1.80 ERA down the stretch!

With Rogers holding down the rotation, a lot of the Orioles did find some form towards the back end of the season with Henderson ending up with 17 HRs!

With a youthful core coming to an end soon in Baltimore - what does 2026 have in store for the Orioles?

Joining us on this episode is Sports Man Dan!

So have a listen as review the Orioles' season and Dan lets us know what we have to look forward to in 2026 - Happy Listening!
