 wo things can be true at the same time — and that duality defines this entire episode of Jen, Gabe & Chewy. The Milwaukee Brewers officially traded Freddie Peralta and Tobias Myers to the New York Mets, and the reaction from the crew (and the fan base) lives in a very uncomfortable middle ground: you can trust the front office… and still hate that this is the reality. 012226 JGC Hour 1 ⚾ The duality of being a Brewers fan Jen opens the show by laying out the tension every Brewers fan feels: The front office has consistently made smart, disciplined moves The Brewers remain competitive year after year And yet, the cycle never changes The Brewers develop elite talent, nurture it, and then — when free agency looms — send it off to its “forever home.” It’s the “foster home vs. forever home” analogy all over again. 🏈 Why this trade still stings Freddie Peralta wasn’t just another arm: He was the ace He made every start He posted a sub-3 ERA He struck out 200+ hitters He stabilized the rotation in a sport built on attrition Jen and Gabe argue that, yes, the Brewers may eventually benefit — but they are undeniably worse right now because of this move. That’s the part fans are allowed to be upset about. 🌱 How many shortstops do you need? One of the loudest questions of the hour: How many Top-100 shortstops does one organization need? With Jet Williams joining an already crowded system that includes: Bryce Turang Jesus Made Multiple other infield prospects …the crew questions fit, not talent. Someone eventually has to hit the ball out of the ballpark, and speed-and-defense-only prospects don’t solve that. 📉 Why not just keep Freddie? A central argument: The Brewers could have: Kept Peralta for 2026 Let him walk like Willy Adames Collected a Top-40 compensatory pick Maintained rotation stability for one more run Instead, they chose certainty over hope — converting a known ace into future assets in an uncertain MLB landscape that may not even play baseball in 2027. 💰 The real frustration: ownership, not the front office The show is clear about where frustration should be directed: Matt Arnold and the baseball ops group are good at their jobs Pat Murphy is a strong manager The system works — within constraints But the constraints are the problem. Mark Attanasio’s Brewers are profitable, valuable, and supported by fans who: Funded a stadium Show up consistently Buy merchandise Watch every game And yet, payroll continues to trend downward, not upward. As Chewy puts it: “I’m not going to do the bidding of a billionaire.” 📞 Fans weigh in The Carbless Talk & Text Line fills with: Comparisons to Corbin Burnes and Josh Hader Frustration that Tobias Myers felt like a “throw-in” Fear that Jacob Misiorowski is just the next pitcher to be traded Exhaustion with always building for later One sentiment comes through loud and clear: Fans aren’t asking for reckless spending — they’re asking for seriousness. ⚖️ The bottom line The Brewers will likely: Compete for the division Be in the playoff mix Continue developing talent well But until the organization shows a willingness to push chips in, this cycle will repeat — and fans will continue living in that uncomfortable duality. You can trust the process. You can hate the structure. And you can still love the team. 🎧 A raw, honest, very Wisconsin conversation about baseball economics, loyalty, and why “next year” doesn’t feel good enough anymore — only on Jen, Gabe & Chewy.
