Spiegel & Holmes Show

Danny Parkins and Matt Spiegel opened their show by discussing the Yankees' sweep of the White Sox over the weekend. Would it surprise you at all if we said "Mush" Parkins bet on the White Sox twice? It wasn’t all his fault though, as manager Tony La Russa still doesn’t have any idea how to utilize his bullpen.

In the third hour, Danny Parkins and Matt Spiegel were joined by Marquee Sports Network play-by-play man Jon "Boog" Sciambi to discuss the latest Cubs storylines, including reliever Justin Steele getting hurt on the basepaths Thursday.

In the final hour, Danny Parkins and Matt Spiegel discussed how the White Sox are set to leave for New York on their Yoan Moncada-themed road trip. With the minimal likelihood that manager Tony La Russa signed a one-year deal, what’s the attitude in the clubhouse knowing he’s here for the long haul? And does the recent drama he created still bother White Sox fans, three days removed? Also, Stephen Curry's Warriors and LeBron James' Lakers face each other in the play-in round Wednesday night. What does parity look like right now in the NBA? And as always, we ended the show with your questions in the One Last Thing segment.

In the second hour, Danny Parkins and Matt Spiegel discussed how the White Sox won their series against the Minnesota Twins despite manager Tony La Russa asking his players to not be themselves. The guys listened and reacted to La Russa's postgame audio from Tuesday and his pregame comments from Wednesday, where he tripled down on his muzzling of budding star Yermin Mercedes. Also, are we close to a point in which MLB broadcast teams could start traveling? MLB believes you can’t tell the difference, and that’s bad news for access.
