Summary
On this episode of Dan Bernstein Unfiltered, Dan opens with a hard‑truth conversation about the modern state of MLB pitching. Injuries are no longer the exception—they’re the expectation.
0:00 Final Four
14:12 Cade Horton
19:50 Ozzie Guillen
28:10 Jaden Ivey
34:42 Bulls outlook
39:40 Cooper Flagg / LeBron
46:06 - Waffle House
1:01:00 DBU Picks
As disappointing as it is for fans, this is simply how the game works now. Cubs prospect Cade Horton may end up perfectly fine, or this could be something more serious. Either way, Bernstein isn’t being callous when he says the league moves on—and fans have to understand that reality too.
Dan then shifts to Illinois’ loss to UConn, a game where it felt like nothing could fall for the Illini while everything fell for the Huskies. UConn couldn’t miss, tying a school tournament record with 13 made three‑pointers, and that shooting barrage proved too much to overcome. UConn now advances to face Michigan tonight with the national title on the line.
We also celebrate a big Chicago sports moment as Ozzie Guillén gets his number retired by the Chicago White Sox, honoring his lasting impact on the franchise and the city.
The episode takes a more serious turn with the ongoing Jaden Ivey situation. After Ivey was seen street preaching over the weekend, Bernstein expresses concern for a once‑promising young player who may be spiraling. Dan questions whether the Bulls—or even Detroit—need to step in and provide support, emphasizing that this feels bigger than basketball.
In the NBA, Cooper Flagg has emerged as the early favorite for Rookie of the Year, and fans were treated to a show as Flagg and LeBron James shared the spotlight in a memorable performance last night.
Plus:
DBU Picks
And the absolutely unreal story of a government official who claims he can teleport to a Waffle House in Rome, Georgia
As always, it’s honest, unfiltered, and all over the sports map—exactly what DBU listeners come for.

| 1:28.3 | That if I thought that the tactical chops and the strategic failures of Brad Underwood |
