Danny Parkins and Matt Spiegel talk with White Sox color analyst, Steve Stone on the struggling White Sox
From 'Baseball Isn't Boring' (subscribe here): Bradfo is joined by Matt Spiegel of 670 The Score in Chicago to try and make sense of his upside-down world in the Major League Baseball Standings, so far. The Pirates. The Rangers. The Orioles. The Diamondbacks. And, the team Matt follows every day, the Cubs.
They have all gone a long way to shocking baseball with their early-season success, leaving smiles on fans who haven't turned those frowns upside down in some time. Conversely, there are teams like the White Sox — another club Spiegel is very familiar with — offering perhaps the most disappointing group thus far. It's not only even a month in, but what a ride it has been.

You aren't going to find a better primer for Abreu's market as he heads into free agency. The trio also debates which player would be best to start a franchise with and whether giving a wedding speech or playing music at a wedding carries more pressure.

Bradfo does you the service of breaking out Boras' best lines and offering analysis on each one. It is baseball and it is definitely not boring.

White Sox manager Tony La Russa is stepping away from the team indefinitely, as he's scheduled to see heart specialists in Arizona. Miguel Cairo will manage the team in his absence. We talk about that with White Sox television analyst Steve Stone. Then, let's take a look at the claims the Bears made after the roster cut madness of Tuesday.

What will the Bulls do in the NBA Draft? And if Coby White doesn’t have a spot on this team, who’s a likely trade partner? The Bulls might be looking to move up in the draft.
How do you consume the NBA Draft? Danny is going to choose to let Twitter ruin it for him while also taking in the live coverage. Spiegs is doing the opposite. We're ready for the NBA Draft to be spoiled. And how about Kyrie Irving basically demanding a trade on the day of the draft? If his wishes are granted, where does Kevin Durant go as a reaction? Also, Lenyn Sosa has been called up by a very banged-up White Sox team and he's not even in the lineup Thursday evening. And as always, we end the show with your questions in One Last Thing.
Sure looked like Patrick Wisdom was safe in the top of the 10th in Pittsburgh! The Cubs come back from a 7-2 deficit and then just piss it all away again in an 8-7 loss. Then, Jason Goff was listening in his car, heard us talking shit about Chris Russo and "First Take" and had to call in. Goff also heard E.J. Liddell with us Wednesday and wants him on the Bulls BADLY. So what will the Bulls do in the NBA Draft? And if Coby White doesn’t have a spot on this team, who’s a likely trade partner?
One day after saying he hates Beat the Streak, Matt Spiegel now LOVES this game as Wednesday's Daily Double A was successful! Spiegs also recaps the action across MLB, including Austin Hays' cycle in a monsoon and the BTS leader going down. Plus, BTS picks for Thursday!

The Bears hired for a TON of new positions, but we have no idea what the hell it means just yet. Sure sounds like Ryan Poles and Matt Eberflus are building quite the cabinet!

Sure sounds like Ryan Poles and Matt Eberflus are building quite the cabinet!
For the Cubs or anyone, it doesn’t get much more embarrassing than a 12-1 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates. That forces us to remember the 2015 season, when the Cubs' dynasty began and they embarrassed the Pirates in that play-in game and we had the arrival of Kyle Schwarber. What the hell? Tony La Russa made the right decision with the White Sox lineup and despite what Rick Hahn said about resting Tim Anderson in back-to-backs, he's leading off against the Blue Jays on Tuesday.

Tony La Russa is going to mess this up, isn’t he? The White Sox offense exploded for 13 hits Monday and La Russa is going to mess it up and put Adam Hasely in there Tuesday against a right-handed Kevin Gausman. We can feel it. Then, what are we watching with Andrew Vaughn? He’s hitting .330 and absolutely mashing baseballs. Let’s talk about superlatives. Will Vaughn pass Paul Konerko and Frank Thomas as the most lauded White Sox first basemen in the franchise’s history?

Ben Verlander of Fox Sports and the Flipping Bats podcast tells us he doesn’t think Tony La Russa is the right fit for the White Sox.

MLB took a huge step Sunday night toward growing the game and promoting its players.

Then, Score teammate and Mob member Mark Grote was inducted into the Illinois State University Broadcast Hall of Fame this past weekend. Let’s celebrate him like only we can.

Here’s the thing – turns out the White Sox are actually pretty good! That being said, starting Vince Velasquez at your home opener is NOT a good look when so many good starting arms were available in the offseason. Also, new Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki swung a confident bat in his opening weekend of MLB action. Are you excited to see him blossom into a mainstay in Wrigley Field’s outfield?

We recorded an interview with White Sox ace Lucas Giolito on Thursday. And aired it today. It was an interview in which Giolito talks about his goal of throwing 200 innings and not getting injured. Then he got hurt today in the first game of the season. Whoops. And, was the White Sox's defensive positioning at the end of their loss to the Tigers what it should have been?

And as always, we end the show with your questions in One Last Thing.
We continue the unofficial White Sox postgame show after their loss to the Tigers on Opening Day in Detroit.

We’re back with another season of White Sox baseball, and Danny Parkins is back with another season of mushing the South Siders during every day game.
There was absolutely zero buzz around Wrigley Field at Opening Day on Thursday. A sign of what's to come for the 2022 Chicago Cubs? Then, the injury bug is already attacking the White Sox as Lucas Giolto was pulled after four innings in the season opener in Detroit. Worried or no way? Spiegs launched his new podcast for Audacy, Beat the Streak. And in the first episode, he’s already getting clowned by executive producer and new assistant program director Ryan Porth.
The guys jump in for a short show that acted as an extended Cubs postgame following the team's 5-4 victory against the Milwaukee Brewers on Opening Day. Nico Hoerner went deep, and we got a chance to see vintage Kyle Hendricks. Plus, what are we supposed to call this phase of Cubs baseball?

It’s time for a cultural exchange. Let’s catch Spiegs up on what he missed while in the Dominican Republic. And he’ll let us know what we missed by not being in the DR.

Zach LaVine alarmists, unite. It was another horrendous performance by the ailing shooting guard Monday.

Also, we had more cheeks talk and revisited the 50/50 fries-and-onion rings conversation from last week.
In the second hour, Danny Parkins was joined by White Sox Talk podcast co-host Ryan McGuffey live from spring training in Arizona. Who’ll be patrolling right field for the White Sox?

Also, the Zach Lavine-less Bulls did NOT look very good this weekend -- but they earned a win.
You like getting some cheeks? Shane Riordan and Bradon Fryer -- Chris Tannehill's fill-in on this day -- sure do. Let's see if Danny Parkins knows what that means. Then, let’s check in on the poor ol’ city of Pittsburgh after the Steelers’ addition of quarterback Mitch Trubisky in free agency.

Later, we find out that Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson won't face criminal charges following a series of sexual assault allegations.

And as always, we answer your questions in "One Last Thing."

Then, the Bears have a new defensive coordinator in Alan Williams. With the combination of new coach Matt Eberflus and Williams, could this be a new Bears defense that’s good both quickly and consistently?

Danny Parkins and Matt Spiegel opened their show with plenty of Bears conversation.

He sounds like a guy with a real good head on his shoulders and a penchant for some badass defense.
We get the show going the only way soundman Chris Tannehill knows how – with the “Goodfellas" treatment for Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers.

What an offensive display from Josh Allen and the Bills on Sunday!
In the second hour, Danny Parkins was joined by Bulls television play-by-play man Adam Amin to discuss the team's injuries and their All-Stars.
