Baseball Isn’t Boring

Bradfo and MassLive's Chris Cotillo catch up with reliever Zack Kelly, who is trying to find his way back to the majors after being sent back down to Triple-A. Kelly offers an honest assessment of his career path, which may or may not keep him with Red Sox the rest of the season.

After missing all of the 2026 season with a shoulder issue, Romy Gonzalez is on the verge of returning to the Red Sox. Bradfo caught up with the infielder to talk about his timeline and how he feels about things heading into a projected reunion with his teammates this coming weekend.

The Mets remain one of the most perplexing teams in all of Major League Baseball, which is why they are a fantastic topic for Bradfo and Laura Albanese of Newsday to dive into. Should they buy? Should they sell? What has gone wrong? What is the future of Bo Bichette? All that and some outstanding talk about t-shirts make this another top-tier discussion with the Mets' beat writer.

Bradfo and Gordo are back for another Baseball Isn't Boring on the Radio, this time celebrating the great game on Father's Day. Along with recapping the week and revisiting Bradfo's stint as a PA Announcer, the guys take stock of whether or not the Red Sox deserve their optimism or their ire.

Twenty years ago, Daniel Bard and his University of North Carolina baseball team made it to the College World Series finals only to fall short. Now, Bard is returning to Omaha, this time to cheer on his alma mater as UNC takes on Oklahoma in the championship series. Bard joins Bradfo to talk about his journey back to Nebraska, what he remembers about that run two decades ago, and why all of this has made him view baseball in a different light.

Courtney Finnicum and Bradfo are teaming up to give you a perspective of what it's like to play with and against the most talked-about pitcher in baseball, Jacob Misiorowski. First, Courtney catches up with Jake Bauers of the Brewers to talk about the guy he affectionately identifies as "a goober" while offering some perspective on life as a Brewer. Then Bradfo asks former Brewer Caleb Durbin about his perspective on his former teammate, and how he remembers finding out The Mis made the All-Star team. There is also the memory of how difficult it was to take on the pitcher in an intrasquad game. It's timely and awesome.

The stars aligned for Tommy Kahnle. The Red Sox reliever has found himself in an ideal position for June 19, getting the opportunity to see a dream come true by attending Team USA's World Cup game in Seattle, before taking the field for his team's game against the Mariners later in the day. Kahnle explained to Bradfo how it all came out.

The Play Tessie guys (Gordo, Pat and Sammy) are back with another excellent version of BIB Notes, this time tackling the topic of the Giants becoming the first team to land firmly in the sellers category heading toward the trade deadline. The idea that Rafael Devers might land with the Yankees, or Matt Chapman finding himself in Philadelphia, has the guys buzzing.

There is a buzz around baseball thanks to a whole new wave of fans. The Tartan Army, otherwise known as Scotland's football/soccer supporters, have invaded ballparks and reminded us all how great the baseball-watching experience can be. Bradfo is joined by a member of the crew, Greg Weir, to offer a next-level perspective on how the Scots viewed their trip to Fenway Park and what they thought of the game, which we absolutely know is anything but boring. Bradfo caps things off with a quick conversation with a player, Red Sox reliever Greg Weissert, who had a front row seat to the Scot-led party that took place in the Fenway bleachers.

It's another episode of 'Baseball Fans Aren't Boring' with our host Kaylee Kowalski catching up with the heart and soul of the Kane County Cougars fan base, 91-year-old Jack 'Mr. Kaboom' Phelan. Our guy 'Kaboom' talks about how he found himself as the guy who has helped get the party started since 1997.

Bradfo is back on with the guys on the WEEI Afternoon Show, this time to reflect on the unbelievable impact the Scottish World Cup fans had on Sunday night's game at Fenway Park. The guys also dive into whether or not John Henry being around means anything, the merits of keeping Willson Contreras and all the other good stuff that Dadfo listens in for.

Celebrating baseball can take many forms, as we remind everyone on this podcast. First, Bradfo details how fans from Scotland reminded us all how great the entire ballpark experience. And then our host sits down with one of the good ones in MLB, Texas first baseman Jake Burger. And, finally, there is a conversation with the unbelievably insightful Kyle Higashioka. It's another awesome dose of people watching and talking about the greatness of baseball.

Newsletter Wiggz - the author and owner of the Baseball Isn't Boring substack - is back with Bradfo for another episode of the The Stack. This time, the guys are debating if Jacob Misiorowski is the most dominant pitcher of all time. There are some really good takes, and some really terrible comparisons. The guys are also answering questions from the BIB community.
