Eno, Trevor, and DVR discuss the quality of the Brewers' bullpen with Trevor Megill on the IL due to a flexor strain, Luis Robert's 2026 outlook as his season appears to be over, Bryan Woo's ascent to ace-level results, and what we've learned in Year 1 with the A's in West Sacramento as their position player core comes together. Plus, they consider the possibility of an in-season MLB tournament, before playing the latest installment of 'Name! That! Dude!'.
