Jerry Hairston Jr. joined Bill to discuss what impact Shohei Ohtani can have for the Dodgers on the mound, how Los Angeles will handle his innings moving forward, if the Dodgers are in jeopardy of losing the NL West, if the Red Sox are better off without Rafael Devers and why the Cubs are a legit contender this season.
Bill opened the show by reacting to the incredible performances from Jalen Williams and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander as the Thunder beat the Pacers in Game 5 of the NBA Finals. Bill then explained why the Pacers need star Tyrese Haliburton to be better in Game 6 before diving into Shohei Ohtani's return to the mound. The hour ended with Bill and Hickey, off the Rafael Devers trade, discussing which current athletes are untradeable.
Bill kicked off hour two by reacting to the NBA Finals and offseason news with The Athletic's senior NBA reporter Sam Amick before diving into Buy or Sell. The show ends with Bill spelling out the path for the Pacers to win Game 5.
In today's Buy or Sell, Bill answers if new blood in golf intrigues him, if the Red Sox deserve more criticism for their process of trading Rafael Devers than actually trading the All-Star, if the clock has started ticking on Ja Morant's exit in Memphis, if Rory McIlroy owes the media anything, if the Thunder will win Game 5 by double digits, if he's excited to watch Shohei Ohtani's return to the mound and if he's into the Club World Cup.
Sam Amick joined Bill to discuss where Kevin Durant could land next season, his biggest takeaway from Game 4 of the NBA Finals, how the levelheadedness of the Thunder is working in their favor and if Ja Morant's future is in question after the Grizzlies traded away Desmond Bane.
Bill opened the show by discussing how the Boston Red Sox, in trading All-Star Rafael Devers, are using their team more as an investment than a public trust, which fans should be disgusted by. Bill then updates for the last time the Aaron Judge .400 tracker and reacts to Caitlin Clark's incredible return to the court on Saturday before ending the hour by discussing both Rory McIlroy's explanation for skipping press conferences and Ja Morant's future after the Grizzlies traded Desmond Bane to the Magic.
Bill opens hour two by breaking down the latest NFL news with Super Bowl champion Brady Poppinga before diving into Buy or Sell. The show ends with Bill naming the Bum of the Week.
In today's Buy or Sell, Bill answers if hockey or basketball comebacks are more impressive, if the Pacers will win Game 4, if as a pitcher he would rather face Shohei Ohtani or Barry Bonds, if Dak's comments are concerning, if losing a no-hitter because of injury is worse than giving up a hit, if he would eat four pounds of baked beans to help his team win and if he is superstitious.
Former Packers linebacker Brady Poppinga joined Bill to discuss if he believes Aaron Rodgers can have success with the Steelers, how his leadership style will translate to Pittsburgh, how much of an impact ownership has on winning and who is the team to beat in the NFC North.
