Bruce Drennan and Matt Fontana recap the Cleveland Guardians’ series loss to the Chicago White Sox, where Cleveland narrowly avoided being swept and managed to salvage a critical win to stay atop the American League Central. They break down how the series slipped away early, what went wrong in the losses, and how the Guardians were able to battle back just enough to keep pace in a tightly contested division race.

Plus, senior NBA writer Sam Amico joins to break down the Cavaliers’ decision to draft Meleek Thomas, his projected outlook and role on the team, and whether a potential LeBron James reunion in Cleveland could be on the horizon. He also weighs in on how he views the Eastern Conference following the blockbuster trade sending Giannis Antetokounmpo to the Heat.

Finally, the discussion turns to cover the NFL’s polarizing decision not to hold a supplemental draft for quarterback Brendan Sorsby, as well as the team’s move to bring back Ryan Grigson.
