## Resource

It’s a long season, but one-third of the way through a 162-game schedule is a good time to reassess, especially given the extremes of the club’s performance. The Athletic’s Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney give their takes, based on information from their travels, and conversations on the field and in the clubhouse. What’s the secret to the Brewers’ success? How will Craig Counsell adjust to the circumstances? And which direction will Jed Hoyer’s front office go at the trade deadline?   Get 20% off your first order of $125 or more at MackWeldon.com with promo code FOUL 🌶️ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
