Episode Starkville | Brewing Up Something Special with GM Matt Arnold
The NL Cy Young race is absolutely loaded right now. Cristopher Sánchez just rattled off 50 and two-thirds consecutive scoreless innings, Jacob Misiorowski is lighting up radar guns, and Shohei Ohtani has his ERA sitting below 1.00. This week, Jayson Stark and Doug Glanville break down the crowded race for the award and discuss just how impressive Sánchez's scoreless streak was.
Later, Brewers President of Baseball Operations and General Manager Matt Arnold stops by to talk about Milwaukee's surprising run to the top of the standings, Misiorowski's rapid rise, and what it's really like to spend time around manager Pat Murphy.
Plus, the guys close things out with another edition of Strange But True, featuring a magic number of 13.
