SportsDay Rangers Episode 37: The one with Jake Diekman

Fri, 08 May 2026 10:00:00 -0000

As the Rangers' arduous season-opening stretch enters its final week, John and Evan join the angsting over the Rangers offense. Seems almost like it's a theme. Or maybe its own special. Then former Rangers reliever Jake Diekman, the latest of the legions of former Rangers now coaching high school baseball, joins us to talk about his new career (with the best backdrop any guest has ever had). Diekman also talks about his battle with ulcerative colitis and how he continues to help kids dealing with it. And about the chemistry created in bullpens. Finally, John cracks the code on the Archives vault to tell us about the Rangers' back-to-back one-hitters in 1996. The guys also pay tribute to John Sterling and Ted Turner and the contributions both brought to baseball.

With Kevin "unavailable," Tim Cowlishaw joins Evan to go around the horn -- no pun intended -- with hot takes on the Stars and their Stanley Cup Final drought, the Mavs and the most important thing about Masai Ujiri's hiring, the Cowboys drafting of an actual leader and what Springsteen song he wants to hear at the concert that is a rite of passage for old sportswriters. Then Shawn McFarland joins Evan to break down the performance of Jacob Latz and the Rangers' bullpen and the team's overall start. The guys offer their biggest concern moving forward. And then debate the single-biggest disappointment in the Rangers' offense thus far.

Fri, 01 May 2026 10:00:00 -0000

With April coming to a close, John and Evan consider what went right in the first month and what didn't. Josh Jung: Big hit. Jacob Latz: Ditto. But what about Globe Life Field seems to have gotten in the Rangers' heads. Then Kevin Mench joins the show for some memories of his seven-game home run streak back in 2006 and also to get some head-size abuse from John. Do we need to file a report with HR (Head Resources)? Finally with a weekend of firings around baseball, John creaks open the archives to find times when the Rangers changed managers early in the year and why.

Wed, 29 Apr 2026 16:16:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Calvin Watkins discuss [00:45] the Cowboys' draft and why Calvin gave it only a B.

[32:05] Evan says the Rangers' offense won't get going until Corey Seager and Wyatt Langford wake up at the plate. Kevin says most of the pressure is on Seager, and he expects him to hit eventually. He'd better. [47:00] The guys also discuss Paige Bueckers' statement on her relationship with Azzi Fudd, and Kevin tells us why Cooper Flagg deserved to be Rookie of the Year.

SportsDay Rangers, Episode 35: The one with Mark McLemore

Fri, 24 Apr 2026 10:00:00 -0000

With the Rangers sitting at .500, a familiar spot the last two seasons, John and Evan break down the significance of Wyatt Langford's forearm injury and whether all the soft tissue injuries early in his career are a concern. Speaking of concerns, the guys wonder about Corey Seager getting hot, because, as Evan says, the offense isn't really going anywhere until Seager and Langford get on track. And what's the deal with this defense? Then Mark McLemore joins the guys as they continue celebrating the 30th anniversary of the first Rangers playoff team. The Doctor of Defense reminisces about what Johnny Oates meant to his career and how that helped McLemore become a clubhouse leader for the late 1990s Rangers. Finally, John goes back to the Nolan Ryan shelf in the Archives in Arlington to break out a story about the hot start of the 1989 team.

Cowboys' draft possibilities, Rangers' start and Wings' miss

Thu, 23 Apr 2026 16:04:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Joe Hoyt go over the Cowboys' draft prospects one last time before Thursday's big day and try to sort out the possibilities. Trade up? Or stay put? Consensus: If they wait, they'll miss an impact player. Kevin says Ray Davis pulled the rug out from under Chris Young by cutting payroll, thus keeping him from investing in the bullpen. Gavin Collyer has been good enough so far to make Evan remember the debut of a closer named Robb Nen. And the guys discuss the Wings' handling of Azzi Fudd's introductory news conference.

Evan offers an in-depth breakdown of the club, focusing on the issues surrounding the bullpen (an ongoing theme) and putting the record into context with the early-season schedule and the early-season stumbles of Houston and Seattle. John really digs deep into the archives in Arlington for the first game the franchise ever played way back when John was just a young man, and it turns into a breakdown of presidential first pitches. Nothing John loves more than mixing baseball history with presidential history.

Cowboys' draft needs, Mavs' finish and Rangers' nice start

Wed, 15 Apr 2026 17:00:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Joe Hoyt discuss the order of the Cowboys' needs and how that may impact their draft process. Joe says if they stand pat at 12, and if the draft fell just right, he'd guess they want Ohio State linebacker Sonny Styles or his teammate, Caleb Downs, a safety. But their biggest need, as our guys project, is at edge rusher. Can they still get one in the draft? Kevin outlines the potentially mercurial nature of the Mavs' roster under a new GM, expected to be named the middle of next month. And Evan tells us why things are on the up and up for the Rangers in the West as they navigate what is potentially the toughest segment of their schedule this season.

Fri, 10 Apr 2026 10:00:00 -0000

After the Rangers' sweep of Seattle, John and Evan break down the hits (and the lack of them) and the excellent pitching that marked the first homestand of the year. What a difference it makes to have MacKenzie Gore in the middle of the rotation. Rangers quality control coach Rod Barajas, who caught for the Rangers for three seasons, joins the guys to talk about his long working relationship with Skip Schumaker, his take on the night the seat really hit the fan in 2004, that almost magical season and how he "forced" Schumaker to retire as a player. When John cracks open the Archives in Arlington, a big night for Pudge Rodriguez spills out. John thought he was about to see history. He's seen a lot of it.

Cowboys trading up and Rangers blowing a golden opportunity

Wed, 08 Apr 2026 16:30:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Joe Hoyt discuss the prospects of the Cowboys trading up to get a pass rusher such as David Bailey or Arvell Reese and whether they should expend the resources necessary. Do they wait to see if Rueben Bain Jr. falls to 12? Would they trade up to nine for a shot at Sonny Styles, Caleb Downs or Mansoor Delane? All options apparently are on the table. Evan and Kevin also discuss the Rangers' flop in the home-opening series against the Reds. Evan says they missed a golden opportunity to show fans this team is different from the previous two. Kevin also asks if Kumar Rocker might be a temporary answer at closer if Jakob Junis fails.

Wed, 05 Nov 2025 10:30:00 -0000

Kevin, Evan and Joe Hoyt break down [1:08] the Cowboys “fiasco,” and another Jerry Jones circus that included more word salad from the owner. After all of the chatter about the mystery trade, Joe suggests the deal for Logan Wilson of Cincinnati was a good move. [22:45] The guys spend a few minutes breaking down the bad optics of departures of long-time Rangers fixtures such as Mike Maddux and Tony Beasley. And then, the wearer of many hats, Lia Assimakopoulos joins [30:58] to try to make sense of the Mavs’ diabolical plan to imprison the Stars before switching over to the significance of SMU’s win over Miami.

Cowboys’ disaster, Aggies’ title hopes and a World Series for the ages

Wed, 29 Oct 2025 11:20:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Calvin Watkins discuss [00:50] the Cowboys’ loss to the Broncos, which Evan says doesn’t qualify as a disaster because it wasn’t a surprise. Here’s a surprise: If Jerry Jones waves the white flag and trades his most marketable asset, George Pickens. [25:59] The guys give their take. Texas A&M picked up another road win against a ranked team with an impressive performance against LSU, getting the Tigers’ coach fired in the process. [56:05] Can the Aggies win their first national title in nearly 90 years? Shawn McFarland joins the group to discuss that and other college football as well as an 18-inning thriller in Game 3. The question: Is Shohei Ohtani better than Babe Ruth?

Cowboys on rollercoaster, Mavs starting up and Texas’ best CFB teams

Wed, 22 Oct 2025 16:11:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Joe Hoyt [00:15] ride the Cowboys rollercoaster for another week, wondering if Sunday's defense against Washington can last. Will it be good enough to take advantage of what looks like Dak Prescott's finest season? And will that make them a playoff team? [20:00] Mike Curtis joins Kevin and Evan to give a preview of the Mavs' opener Wednesday against San Antonio.

Cooper Flagg has made an early impression, but will he, Anthony Davis and the defense be enough to hold things together until Kyrie Irving returns?

[36:43] Kevin and Evan take a look at the teams in Texas with a best shot at the CFP and close with their predictions for the World Series.

Cowboys’ awful defense, Rangers’ skipper and a college football boomtime in Texas

Wed, 15 Oct 2025 10:00:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Calvin Watkins analyze [00:40] a historically bad Cowboys’ defense and what it portends for Matt Eberflus, the defensive coordinator, as well as Brian Schottenheimer. Is it the scheme? The players? Both? How bad is it when Rico Dowdle calls out the Cowboys, and they not only don’t respond, they don’t even take offense? [32:33] The Skip Schumaker era will probably be different from Bruce Bochy’s in terms of communication, but it would be better if it involves better players. Does the Rangers’ director of amateur scouting escape blame for the farm system’s inability to deliver position players? [51:29] And has there ever been a better time for college football in Texas, where four teams are still in the running for three conference titles at the midpoint?

Cowboys’ glass ‘half-full,’ Rangers’ new manager and Texas-OU intrigue

Wed, 08 Oct 2025 10:30:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Joe Hoyt try [00:19] to put the Cowboys’ win over the Jets into perspective. On one hand, it was the Jets, a truly bad team. On the other, Chicago isn’t great, either, and the Bears walked all over the Cowboys. Only a couple weeks after saying they’d be lucky to win five games, Joe now says his glass is “half-full,” if only because the offense is so good and the defense couldn’t be any worse than it was the first three games. Kevin and Evan discuss [25:30] what difference Skip Schumaker can make and rank the biggest needs. (Hint: It’s not pitching). And [51:35] if the Sooners’ John Mateer really is back for Texas-OU, the Longhorns could have a long afternoon at the Cotton Bowl.

Fri, 03 Oct 2025 10:00:00 -0000

Wed, 01 Oct 2025 09:00:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Calvin Watkins discuss [00:25] the Cowboys’ 40-40 stalemate with the Packers and what it means in the big picture. Calvin says it won’t matter how well Dak Prescott plays if the defense doesn’t improve, and he doesn’t see that coming. [23:29] Kevin and Evan analyze Bruce Bochy’s departure from the Rangers, his culpability in their two-year funk and what Chris Young does next, after he officially names Skip Schumaker manager. [46:18] And the guys consider whether Rhett Lashlee would be smart to leave SMU for Arkansas, his alma mater.

John and Evan put a failed season to rest, bemoaning the lack of offense and wondering about what exactly Bruce Bochy meant when he questioned the team's "intensity" and "focus." Then, Rangers postseason pitching hero (at least pre-Nathan Eovaldi) Colby Lewis joins the show to talk about chemistry, having been a rookie on one of the most dysfunctional Rangers teams of all-time and a veteran on two of the most tight-knit. When John cracks open the archives, we find ourselves considering other great performances by other starting rotations in Rangers history.

Cowboys’ ‘disaster,’ Rangers’ flop and another fun season of college football

Wed, 24 Sep 2025 09:45:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Joe Hoyt discuss [00:57] the Cowboys’ awful performance in a loss to the Bears. Joe calls Matt Eberflus’ defense a “disaster” and wonders what changes are forthcoming. He adds that the offense will need to average 30 points a game just to remain competitive. [27:17] Kevin and Evan give their thoughts on an up-and-down Rangers season, what Chris Young needs to do to the lineup and whether Bruce Bochy returns. [45:00] Kevin offers a quick take on Mike Gundy’s exit at Oklahoma State, and Evan says he’ll be happy if this season is anything like last year, when you never knew who’d come out on top.

SportsDay Rangers, Episode 19: The one with Mitch Moreland

Fri, 19 Sep 2025 09:30:00 -0000

After the Rangers were swept in Houston, John and Evan try to pick up the debris. Is there still a glimmer of hope over the final nine-game stretch of the season? John, as always, has the sunny disposition. Evan, maybe not so much. Then Mitch Moreland joins the guys to reminisce over how he was once a version of a "Little Rascal" in 2010 and how guys like Prince Fielder and Adrián Beltré empowered him to become one of the leaders on the 2015-16 Rangers AL West champs. Mitch is also the fellas' first Savannah Banana guest, having now appeared twice in Banana Ball games. And he shares with the guys his route to becoming a first-year high school head coach. Finally, Sunny John remembers some crazy final flurries to seasons that resulted in the Rangers' making the postseason because, in his words, "There's always hope."

Cowboys’ sloppy win, Rangers in Houston and Aggies on a roll

Wed, 17 Sep 2025 09:15:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Calvin Watkins discuss [2:30] the Cowboys’ OT win over the Giants. Dak Prescott’s resolve to run this year after the Cowboys put him on a leash last year has made a big difference on offense, restocked by the likes of George Pickens and Javonte Williams. But the defense? Big problems. [25:48] Evan is in Houston for one of the season’s biggest series, and Kevin says [42:12] Texas A&M’s win over Notre Dame in South Bend doesn’t rise to the level of Johnny Football’s upset of top-ranked Alabama in Tuscaloosa, but it sends a similar message. Plus: What’s up with Arch Manning?

They also look at the shifting landscape at the top of the NFC and Parsons’ role in shaping that. [24:50] Evan shares his thoughts on what the Rangers’ reserves have done to spark a late surge into contention and gives us a rundown on who’s coming back and when, as well as what it’ll mean for the spark plugs. [41:36] Kevin breaks down the big Texas A&M-Notre Dame game this week as well as the state’s other big college stories.

SportsDay Rangers, Episode 16: The one with Cole Hamels

Fri, 05 Sep 2025 09:30:00 -0000

After stumbling all year over how to explain the Rangers' stumbles, John and Evan stumble over how to explain an illogical hot streak and tales of travel woes. The former Rangers ace Cole Hamels joins the guys to recall his unexpected trade to the Rangers, the run to 2015 AL West title and if there is anything these Rangers can take from that. And he reminisces about the day of two Coles, when the Rangers asked him to chaperone first-round draft pick Cole Ragans around spring training. Finally, when John cranks open the Archives in Arlington, out tumbles the tale of the Ranger who played all nine positions - in five innings.

Wed, 27 Aug 2025 09:00:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Joe Hoyt take a look [00:12] at the Cowboys’ final roster decisions and how it impacts several positions, running backs in particular. For the second year in a row, no one’s impressed. Kevin notes that Derrick Henry, who wanted to sign with the Cowboys last year, was ranked this year among ESPN’s top 100 players. The guys also try to figure out why Jerry Jones refuses to negotiate with Micah Parsons’ agent, David Mulugheta, and give their best guess when something gets done. [25:32] Kevin and Evan were both surprised at Bruce Bochy’s enthusiasm about his job, putting the ball in Chris Young’s court.

Cowboys and Rangers, our very own apocalypse

Wed, 20 Aug 2025 12:00:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant are joined [1:00] by Calvin Watkins in an effort to figure out exactly what the Cowboys have done leading up to the final preseason game to make us think they'll be better than what got Mike McCarthy fired. Holes at backup quarterback, defensive line, cornerback and possibly in the offensive line. [27:45] Meanwhile, the Rangers, in the midst of their most important week of the season, decided to do it without Josh Jung, who, not so long ago, showcased the advancement of their player development system. Not a good time for faint of heart fans.

Wed, 13 Aug 2025 16:15:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Joe Hoyt discuss Dallas’ most perplexing sports franchises, each for different reasons. [1:58] The Rangers continue to challenge anyone to write them into the playoffs or write them off. Evan says they don’t have an identity. Kevin says the fact that you don’t know what to expect tells you that’s exactly who they are: unpredictable. [20:17] Joe, who’s relatively new to the Cowboys beat, has discovered what we’ve all come to know: A documentary about a team that hasn’t won anything of consequence in 30 years is proof that the appeal of the Cowboys isn’t about football.

The guys go over his case, the obstacles he faces, the historic nature of his ERA and a little insight into how voting works. Then Ian Kinsler becomes the first live in-studio guest when he sits down for a wide-ranging conversation that starts with how the 2010-13 Rangers went into games knowing they were going to beat opponents and his role in that.

With Kevin on a lavish excursion, Evan steps in to host and sets a SportsDay Insider record with two — TWO — staff guests. [1:00] First, Calvin Watkins joins to walk us through the Jerry-Micah mess and to try to explain what the sticking point is. Will the Cowboys actually trade Micah?

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Joe Hoyt discuss [1:07] the lack of progress in Micah Parsons' contract negotiations as well as Joe's pleasant surprises and concerns.

[25:43] Evan and Kevin analyze the upsurge in the Rangers' offense lately and how that might affect Chris Young's trade deadline plans. Evan says a power arm for the bullpen remains the primary goal. Plus, is Jacob deGrom tipping his pitches to the Angels?

Bottom line: Just Jerry being Jerry. Calvin gives us his three big storylines going into camp, and Evan says the rankings mean there must be a lot of questions about the team. [38:40] Kevin asks Evan if the Rangers still have a playoff pulse, and Evan says it’s hard to tell. [54:00] But they can still make a move for a reliever before the deadline. The guys note Scottie Scheffler’s win in the British Open and the comparisons to Tiger Woods, which makes Evan crazy. [1:05:50] And the guys are down with WNBA players asking to get paid.

Then Rick Helling, the most recent - and perhaps last ever - 20-game winner in Rangers history, joins the guys to talk about being traded from and to the Rangers twice in a two-year period, pitching through the Steroid Era and being one of the first voices to speak out against PEDs.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant are joined by Joe Hoyt, covering the Cowboys in his return to the staff. [1:10] Kevin and Evan can’t argue with the fact that Jacob deGrom was the only Ranger on the preliminary list for Tuesday’s All-Star Game. Do they also fail to make any ripples at the trade deadline? Evan says he wouldn’t have a problem if Chris Young played the cards in his hand. Kevin says he’d dangle Adolis Garcia in a deal. [22:10] Joe renders his two biggest questions for the Cowboys’ season. The first: How will the offense assimilate George Pickens, who, despite massive talent, had problems in Pittsburgh.

Then Will "The Thrill" Clark joins the guys to discuss joining the Rangers back when it didn't seem like a destination spot, what made the 1996 and 1998 Rangers teams special and what he thinks of hitting these days. Will might have some opinions. Finally, John cracks open the archives back to that 1996 season, which produced the Rangers' first playoff team, though there were some hairy moments late, and the clincher came in the middle of an extra-inning game.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant are joined by Stars/SMU beat writer Lia Assimakopoulos to talk [1:00] about the Stars’ new/old coach, Glen Gulutzan. Lia tells us what led Jim Nill to turn to a coach who’s never won a playoff game after firing one who led them to three straight conference finals. [18:08] Lia also discusses the ratification of the House settlement in college sports, meaning schools can officially pay athletes. How will it work? How can they police it? Those are questions still to be answered. [28:15] And Evan despairs over the state of the Rangers, almost surely sellers at this point. Do they cash in Jacob deGrom and Nathan Eovaldi?

SportsDay Rangers, Episode 8: The one with Charlie Hough

Wed, 02 Jul 2025 09:30:00 -0000

The guys rehash the highlights of the weekend, which means mostly Rangers Hall of Fame. With Elvis Andrus now in, Evan gives John his list of the next five guys who should be inducted. John squirms. Then we get down to the Mariners series and that means revisiting more offensive woes. In particular, concerns about Josh Jung. Then the old knuckleballer Charlie Hough, himself a member of the Rangers Hall of Fame, joins to explain how he learned the knuckleball, Tommy Lasorda's reaction to it and what it was like pitching alongside another 40-something in Arlington in Nolan Ryan. Finally, when John cracks open the Archives in Arlington, we look at a couple of weird games in which Charlie was the starter including his disastrous luck with a near no-hitter.

Wed, 25 Jun 2025 10:15:00 -0000

John is back from his big, fat Greek vacation and has lots of questions for Evan about the offense (who doesn't?). The guys wonder if the narrative about Rangers struggling with draft-and-development needs to change, and Evan questions if there is a conspiracy afoot with the baseballs. And either way, Evan says, the trade deadline may still be more than a month away, but the Rangers' deadline may be much sooner. Then, new Rangers Hall of Famer Elvis Andrus joins the guys to discuss the impact Ron Washington and Adrian Beltré had on his early career, how Wash's clubhouse admission in spring of 2010 changed the team and why he once donned a clown mask to torment another Rangers Hall of Famer.

Mike provides updates on the signing of Daniel Gafford to an extension and what Kyrie Irving’s next move might be, and the guys discuss how Jason Kidd might employ Flagg to accommodate not only Irving’s absence but the overflow of big men on the roster. [28:56] Kevin and Evan hash out the Rangers’ inability to score, now reaching record levels, and what that means as the team moves toward the trade deadline. Could Corey Seager be available? Not at the deadline. But after the season? Lots of hard decisions coming for Chris Young.

The guys dispel with current Rangers talk and the archives because when Mr. Ranger is available, you give him the floor. Tom Grieve sits down for a conversation about his 55-year career with the Rangers, which, of course, includes Ted Williams talk, but also his transition to GM and the single biggest innovation of his tenure, which brought the Rangers waves of talent from Latin America.

Wed, 11 Jun 2025 19:25:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant discuss [2:30] the brilliance of Jacob deGrom and how the Rangers’ pitching in general keeps them in the conversation in the AL West. Evan also gets to the heart of Marcus Semien’s rebound and tells us whether he thinks the Rangers need more hitting at the deadline or a high-leverage reliever. [24:00] The guys also talk about the rumors about Jason Kidd’s interest in the Knicks job. Is he really interested, or is he just using them for leverage for more money? And if he’s really interested, why would the Knicks be a better job than the Mavs? Kevin also [33:00] goes over the House settlement approved by a federal judge, allowing NCAA schools the ability to pay athletes directly for the first time in college sports history. Officially, that is.

Evan breaks down the plan for Kumar Rocker and the re-emergence of Marcus Semien before the guys sit down with former Rangers pitcher Darren Oliver, who is now a special assistant in the front office. Darren discusses playing or working for the last five Rangers GMs, dating back to Tom Grieve, being traded for the first time and winding up smack in the middle of the Great Home Run Chase, his transition to a new career as a reliever and what Rangers minor league pitcher he's most fascinated with at the moment.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant are joined by Tim Cowlishaw to discuss [00:20] the buzz around Pete DeBoer’s future with the Stars. Did his comments about Jake Oettinger after pulling him in Game 5 rise to the level of dismissal after reports of grumbling from the players? Tim gives his take on that as well as the possibility of trading Jason Robertson and stripping Jamie Benn of the ‘C’ on his sweater. [21:15] Evan explains what’s behind the IL for Rangers starters this year and what’s up with new gloves for Jacob deGrom and Jack Leiter and how it may relate to the latter’s success. Kevin questions whether the message is getting through to Rangers hitters and what Bruce Bochy needs to do at the top of the batting order. [42:50] And in the ever popular potpourri segment, the guys talk about Scottie Scheffler, the Byron Nelson and what’s going on with the College Football Playoff.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant discuss [00:30] the Stars’ 3-1 deficit in the Western Conference finals, leaving them on the brink of elimination again. Would Pete DeBoer pay the price for the first team to make three straight conference titles without advancing? Kevin and Evan discuss the possibilities and what DeBoer has to delay vacation. [20:48] The guys agree the Rangers are on the clock to be buyers or sellers but argue over what they’d do in the outfield if Alejandro Osuna continues to play like he has since being called up. [56:50] And the sooner the Wings move to Dallas, the better the chance the Paige Bueckers effect becomes an actual thing.

Jake Burger joins the guys to explain the role his minor league assignment played, if there is divine intervention involved in his turnaround and exactly how as a pro player he ended up playing in a college league during the pandemic. And finally, John cracks open the archives to tell a Billy Martin story, which usually involves fisticuffs, and the number of times the Rangers appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated. Because at one point, that was a big deal.

Besides describing the Wings’ debut, Kevin asks Lia if the Stars have reached a tipping point with their third consecutive conference finals. What if they don’t beat the Oilers and make the Stanley Cup Final? [20:08] Brad tells us how Scottie Scheffler, who won his third major over the weekend, has turned himself into the PGA Tour’s most dominant player since Tiger Woods. [32:15] Brad also gives his take on Cooper Flagg, whom he calls the draft’s best two-way prospect since LeBron James. [46:30] And Evan pinpoints what led to the collapse of the Rangers’ bullpen and their best hopes of reconstructing it.

Evan tells us about the impact of Bret Boone as the Rangers’ new hitting coach. And Kevin and Evan discuss [00:50] the second shocking development of the Mavs in the last three-and-a-half development: the Mavs moving from 11th to first in the lottery to earn the right to draft Cooper Flagg.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Tim Cowlishaw discuss [8:20] the Stars’ Game 7 win over Colorado and what it means going into the second round against the Jets. Tim reminds us that momentum is hit-and-miss in hockey, especially if your goalie is only occasionally great, as is the case with Jake Oettinger. [26:10] Evan explains what Chris Young wants from Bret Boone, the Rangers’ new co-hitting coach. [41:30] Kevin says no franchise in the NBA has given up on better point guards than the Mavs, who traded Jason Kidd before his prime, let Steve Nash and Jalen Brunson walk, then traded Luka Doncic in his prime. That’s at least three Hall of Famers. [56:30] The guys also discuss the Kentucky Derby and a contract extension for the Big 12’s Brett Yormark.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore convene on David’s last podcast as he enters semi-retirement. [8:15] Before hitting the door, David tells us what the Cowboys were thinking before their early-round picks, in particular, and how they went for value over need. [27:20] Evan gives us the low, low-down on the Rangers’ offense, including the awful chase numbers across the board and whether firing the hitting coaches or adding a bat is the answer. [48:30] Kevin points out the importance of the Stars’ breakout Game 5 win and what Jake Oettinger’s play portends going forward. And it’s Nelson Week at Craig Ranch.

Cowboys’ draft prospects, Rangers’ lineup and Nico, Nico, Nico

Thu, 24 Apr 2025 10:05:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [3:20] the Cowboys’ draft prospects, including the fact that they could go several ways and still come away with a starter. [28:30] Evan analyzes the lineup changes made by Bruce Bochy in an attempt to shake them from their funk. [44:00] Kevin says it’s a good thing Nico Harrison isn’t the Rangers’ GM, because he’d probably try to trade Corey Seager after yet another hamstring injury. Nico’s second press conference in a week didn’t do anything to rectify the mess the Mavs have made this year, but it’s getting clearer that he’s a my-way-or-the-highway kind of executive who could soon find himself down the road.

Can Rangers’ feeble offense be fixed, and is Micah Parsons a leader now?

Wed, 16 Apr 2025 11:18:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [1:04] a full week of sports topics, starting with the Wings drafting Paige Bueckers with the No. 1 pick. [4:20] The guys don’t give the Mavs much of a shot against the Kings and try to decipher what Nico Harrison will do next, as well as what Patrick Dumont would do next if he fired Nico. (Hint: Not happening). [17:15] Evan says it’s too early to panic about the Rangers’ offense and, besides, there are no easy fixes. [29:00] David tells us what it means that Micah Parsons has finally shown up for voluntary workouts and how Jerry Jones has changed in his approach. [40:10] Kevin and David discuss what makes the most sense for the Cowboys in the first round, and the guys recall a fun finish at the Masters.

Luka’s return, Cowboys draft, frozen Rangers and another ugly ending for Houston

Wed, 09 Apr 2025 10:10:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss a busy week highlighted [00:39] by Luka Doncic’s return Wednesday with his new Laker teammates. David says Luka might be overwhelmed but still sets the over/under at 34 points. Kevin takes the over. Evan takes the way over. [18:25] Evan says Chicago’s cold probably had an impact on the Rangers and suggests a line of demarcation from MLB when it comes to weather. [31:22] The Cowboys’ acquisition of Joe Milton III probably keeps them from drafting another QB, David says, adding he wouldn’t be surprised to see them trade back a few spots. [45:15] And Kevin despairs over another bad ending for Houston, this one even worse than ‘83.

Rangers’ surprising pitching, Cowboys antics and the Final Four

Fri, 04 Apr 2025 09:30:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Birdy the Wonder Dog discuss the state of local sports. [00:27] Evan, aided by his latest canine acquisition, makes a case for Nathan Eovaldi as the Rangers' second-best free agent signing ever, behind only Adrian Beltre. Eovaldi's complete-game, 99-pitch shutout of the Reds stopped the bullpen bleeding after an awful first game in Cincinnati and may have fueled Jack Leiter's excellent performance the next day in another 1-0 win. [24:45] Kevin wonders if the Cowboys ought to trade Micah Parsons after Jerry Jones dissed Parsons' agent at the owners' meetings and said he'd rather pay top dollar and get it right than screw it up. [43:05] And, last but not least, the guys make their title picks for the men's bracket and Kevin tells old Phi Slama Jama stories.

Thu, 27 Mar 2025 02:40:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [00:32] the Cowboys’ offseason and how it impacts their draft process next month. Kevin says it requires the Cowboys to draft for need more than they ought to, though he has the perfect pick for them at 12. (Hint: Think burnt orange). David says we shouldn’t discount the possibility that Amari Cooper signs with the Cowboys, maybe as soon as this weekend. [24:15] Evan tells us why Evan Carter will start the season in Triple-A and how long both Kumar Rocker and Jack Leiter likely will remain in the rotation. [47:27] David says the Mavs should play Anthony Davis now that he’s healthy; Kevin and Evan vote to quit now. And the guys talk about what’s left of their men’s brackets going into the Sweet 16.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [2:20] the dust-up between former Cowboy DeMarcus Lawrence and Micah Parsons and the questions arising from it. Do Micah's social media ventures and questionable leadership really make him a problem for the Cowboys, or will they work around it? [31:43] The guys also argue over whether Kumar Rocker and Jack Leiter deserve to start the season in the rotation (Kevin says no; Evan and David, yes), and [47:55] whether Anthony Davis should return this season to the Mavs' lost cause (Kevin is a no; David, yes; and Evan on the fence).

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [00:20] the Cowboys' free-agent signings this week, what's left to do and how it impacts the draft. David expects they'll still add a couple of veterans; maybe even reunions with Amari Cooper and Stephon Gilmore. Kevin says the loss of Jourdan Lewis and needs in the secondary make Texas' Jahdae Barron a logical first-round pick. [18:55] Evan notes that, after the Yankees' loss of Gerrit Cole, the Rangers are now the favorites in the American League, according to one baseball site. [35:03] And the guys look at the race between the local GMs, highlighted by a hilarious illustration from The Dallas Morning News' Michael Hogue.

[29:20] Evan tells us the latest from spring training, where Kumar Rocker has failed to show he can make the rotation on opening day. [53:15] And the guys analyze the latest problems for a Mavs ownership and management team that apparently doesn’t understand what makes this market tick.

Kevin says he's never seen any pitcher throw harder or with better command with such little ramp-up from inactivity. Basically, if he's healthy, he's great. Evan breaks down the reunion of Rangers relievers and what it means. The guys also analyze Alex Bregman's deal with the Red Sox and how the Astros are hastening the end of their dynasty because Jim Crane doesn't want to pay taxes on it. [33:00] Kevin notes that LA has already embraced its newest celebrity with a mural of Luka Doncic shaking hands with Kobe Bryant. What were the Mavs thinking? Kevin tries to explain.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant discuss [1:50] a lousy Super Bowl and how the Eagles made the Chiefs look so bad. Kevin says the real MVP was Howie Roseman, the Eagles' GM, who’s won two Lombardi Trophies with two head coaches and two quarterbacks. [16:52] Evan still can’t wrap his head around the fact that Nico Harrison traded a 25-year-old superstar, and Kevin notes that Anthony Davis has missed more games than Luka Doncic over the last seven seasons.

David outlines the inner workings and how much of this was Stephen Jones’ call and how much was Jerry’s. [31:09] Evan gives us the latest on the Rangers’ new TV package and what it means in reaching 16 million potential viewers over a five-state area, increasing their market dramatically. [46:15] Kevin says the Mavs’ roster is the most complete they’ve ever had, but injuries mean they should add a center at the trade deadline coming up.

[36:55] The guys talk about Ohio State’s win over Notre Dame in the national championship game and the favorite going into next season (Hint: Based in Austin). Kevin and David look at Luka Doncic’s injury and whether better conditioning could help him stave off some of them.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [4:28] the split between Mike McCarthy and the Cowboys and how much Jerry Jones’, uh, frugality had to do with it. David says he thinks the call between Jerry and Deion Sanders was a smokescreen designed to give both a little publicity and Deion some leverage in contract talks at Colorado. The guys also offer their favorites for the job. (Hint: David wins with a nomination of Pete Carroll). [35:50] Discussion of Texas’ loss to Ohio State in the Cotton Bowl focuses on Quinn Ewers’ fumble and Steve Sarkisian’s call for a sideways run on the goal line.

David notes that they might have gotten a little arrogant thinking that Tyler Guyton could duplicate what Tyler Smith did before him, and the mistakes made overall in the last two drafts impacted this disappointing season. [29:55] Kevin says Texas will have to play its best game of the season to beat Ohio State in the Cotton Bowl semifinals, which might be the actual championship game. [42:57] The guys also discuss what impact the Mavs' injuries will have on the trade deadline and whether it'll be a problem heading toward the playoffs.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [2:23] the Cowboys’ latest debacle, a loss on the road to the 49ers. Evan says Trevon Diggs’ complaints about a reporter’s tweet immediately after the game only amplify the team’s misplaced priorities. Kevin says if Dak Prescott can’t run, as Jerry Jones advises, he’s not a good enough passer to justify that enormous contract. David says the Cowboys’ minus-turnover margin is a large part of their problem, which can’t be fixed at the deadline, but could be helped by the return of Micah Parsons and DeMarcus Lawrence. [32:41] The guys also discuss Texas A&M’s rise to the top of the SEC in Mike Elko’s first year and what that portends for Texas when the two teams meet on Nov. 30.

Texas-OU, Mavs on tap and how long can the Cowboys win like this?

Tue, 08 Oct 2024 19:45:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [1:18] the Cowboys’ win on the road over Pittsburgh even while missing most of their marquee players on defense. The problem against the Lions, Kevin says, is that Jared Goff will do more with a clean pocket than Justin Fields did. Dak Prescott was simply better than Fields. David also explains what Rico Dowdle had to do to become effective for the first time this year. [19:05] Kevin and Evan discuss the big college games of the week and the impact of Texas-OU. Take the points, Kevin says. [37:05] David describes the difference Klay Thompson makes for the Mavs as opposed to what his role had become for the Warriors.

Someone will pay for Cowboys’ troubles, and it won’t be Jerry Jones

Tue, 24 Sep 2024 19:15:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore [1:10] open up the Cowboys’ segment of the podcast to discuss the latest disaster and what it portends for Mike McCarthy.

[29:41] The guys also talk about the LIV Golf experience at Maridoe and the big college football games on tap, and Kevin asks Evan why the heck the Rangers don’t just go ahead and let Wyatt Langford play center field.

Cowboys debacle, Rangers rotation and Texas is back ... to No. 1

Wed, 18 Sep 2024 04:05:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss the big topics in North Texas sports, starting with the [5:50] Cowboys’ flop against New Orleans. The identity of this team, David says, is that if things are going well, it snowballs. Same when it’s going bad. Even so, Kevin says he expects the Cowboys to bounce back against Lamar Jackson and the Ravens based on how they defensed Deshaun Watson and the Browns. [24:07] Evan lays out a potential starting rotation for the Rangers next spring based on the encouraging performances of Kumar Rocker and Jacob deGrom last week. [40:00] Texas is back to No. 1 for the first time since 2008, only this time with two capable quarterbacks in Quinn Ewers and Arch Manning. No QB controversy, Kevin says. This is still Ewers’ team when he’s healthy.

Cowboys, Longhorns dominance, Kumar Rocker coming on and was Jerry really right?

Wed, 11 Sep 2024 12:10:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [1:02] the Cowboys’ surprisingly dominant win over Cleveland in the opener. David and Kevin discuss the spectacular play of second-year LB DeMarvion Overshown, employed as a “spy” on Deshaun Watson, and David adds that the four rookie starters were key to the win. The Cowboys’ play forces Kevin to ask the painful question: Could Jerry Jones actually be right about how good this team is? [20:49] Evan breaks down Kumar Rocker’s phenomenal numbers in the minors and what his start this week against Seattle could mean for the Rangers going into next season.

Tue, 03 Sep 2024 20:45:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss the state of North Texas’ biggest sports stories. Kevin and Evan analyze [7:10] the biggest weaknesses in the Rangers’ lineup and whether Ray Davis is willing to spend to fix it. But before he does that, he’s first got to re-sign his general manager and maybe his manager, too. Does winning outweigh the bottom line with Davis? David goes over [27:49] the Cowboys’ starting lineup for the opener against Cleveland and tells us the impact of Dalvin Cook’s signing on the rest of the running backs. [50:24] The guys talk about Texas A&M’s status as an underachiever in football, and what beating Michigan could do for Texas this week.

Cowboys dithering, Rangers cratering and a new day in college football

Wed, 28 Aug 2024 02:00:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and David Moore discuss [1:11] the Cowboys’ inability to get anything done in a timely manner, and not just the fact that CeeDee Lamb’s contract is pretty much the same one predicted months ago. Four starters in the Cowboys’ front nine on defense have been signed within the last two weeks. And they may still be shopping for a starting running back. [26:42] Meanwhile, the Rangers’ fall from last year’s World Series title practically requires parachutes. But college football is here, [37:14] with a new 12-team playoff and new alliances, and the Aggies have a chance to make a splash if they can beat Notre Dame this week in College Station.

Thu, 18 Jul 2024 22:15:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant discuss [00:52] how the Rangers and MLB pulled off the second All-Star Game in franchise history . Everything was aces, they said, except maybe major professional sports leagues could give the cowboy theme a rest when putting on a show locally. [14:23] Evan also tells us that, even though the Rangers are just five games out, Chris Young still has two weeks to decide if they’ll be buyers or sellers or stand pat. [24:53] Kevin tells us that Klay Thompson gives the Mavs a new look and an upgrade in shooting. But will the change in personnel affect chemistry on defense, the Mavs’ calling card this year?

The guys discuss what the Mavs need to do this offseason and how much they need to and bemoan the criticism of Luka Doncic. [27:25] Evan looks up the numbers to tell us just how bad Adolis Garcia is going, and Kevin wonders if that’s at the heart of the Rangers’ offensive woes. [49:32] Bryson DeChambeau has made himself into the most popular player in golf just by having a personality, a stunner, but not as stunning as the passing of Willie Mays, the greatest player left from the golden age of baseball.

Frustration with Cowboys, Mavericks slumping and a lone Ranger for All-Star Game?

Wed, 12 Jun 2024 00:46:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore open [00:25] the discussion by noting that, in David’s time covering the Cowboys, he’s never seen fan angst at a higher level. Could frustration over playoff losses combined with an inactive offseason be exacerbated by the success of the Rangers, Stars and Mavs? Has the bar been raised across the board? [3:45] Kevin and David analyze why the Mavs have lost two games in a row for the first time in the playoffs and what they can do to at least avoid what David calls a “gentleman’s sweep” of five games and out. [23:32] Evan projects maybe just one Ranger on the All-Star team at Globe Life Field and says the next two weeks will determine if they’re buyers at the trade deadline.

[30:49] Kevin and David debate the leadership skills of Micah Parsons and wonder what the Cowboys' salary cap will look like when Dak Prescott, Ceedee Lamb and Parsons are all signed up.

Stars-Mavs on brink, Rangers on hold and did Mike Zimmer take a shot at DQ?

Thu, 30 May 2024 16:00:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [4:45] the Stars and Mavs closing in on the finals in their respective sports. David notes that no NBA team has ever blown a 3-0 lead at any level of the playoffs, but Kevin says the absence of Dereck Lively II in the paint certainly has encouraged the Wolves’ Anthony Edwards and Karl Anthony-Towns, who outplayed Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving in Game 4. The Mavs need to close out Game 5 in Minneapolis, David said, to give Lively and Luka time to recuperate. [18:40] Evan goes over the Rangers’ weird week, and Kevin proposes a blockbuster trade. [43:08] David tells us what OTAs really mean and explains what Mike Zimmer meant when discussing the rehabilitation of Mazi Smith’s career and Dan Quinn’s hand in it.

Kevin likes the Stars’ chances of advancing better than the Mavs’. David acknowledges the Mavs as underdogs but believes their defense and the presence of Luka Doncic, the best player in the series, makes it a toss-up. [25:59] Evan tells us what the problem is with the Rangers’ lineup (Hint: absence of the regular third baseman) and whether he thinks they’ll ever slug again. [42:09] And Kevin and David look over Jared Goff’s new contract and what it means for the Cowboys’ negotiations with Dak Prescott.

Tue, 14 May 2024 21:16:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, [2:15] Evan Grant and David Moore discuss the twin second-round series of the Stars and Mavs: One team on the verge of making its conference finals after another dominating win; the other blowing a chance to do the same with an inexcusable loss. Not only was the Mavs’ free throw shooting horrendous, their superstars, Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, couldn’t match the Thunder’s Shai Gilgeous-Alexander with their scores combined. [21:08] Evan tells us what’s up with the Rangers’ lineup and Adolis Garcia in particular. And the guys discuss [41:42] Tom Brady’s curious shot at Dak Prescott in discussing his upcoming role as analyst for Fox’s opening game between the Cowboys and Browns.

David tells us when the Mavs will miss Maxi Kleber the most. [31:40] The guys also discuss the transformation of Kyrie Irving, who seems happy in Dallas and is playing like it. Evan says as Corey Seager goes, so goes the Rangers’ offense. And David [51:10] tells us why Will McClay doesn’t always draft players from the SEC or Big Ten, but it’s a tiebreaker.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant discuss [1:12] the Cowboys’ draft and why, why, why they didn’t take a running back. David provides insight into the Cowboys’ thinking and what they got right, namely, the offensive line, and what the signing of Zeke Elliott means. [24:45] Evan says the Rangers did about as well as could be expected for a tough April schedule, while Kevin argues that, if they’d played well, they could have distanced themselves from the competition. [44:55] Kevin and David analyze the difference in the Clippers when Kawhi Leonard plays or doesn’t, and the impact it has on the Mavs in the playoffs. And the guys reveal the depth of their hockey knowledge in discussing the Stars’ ability to square their playoff series with Vegas at 2-2.

David tells us if our picks are on the Cowboys’ radar (Hint: Yes). Kevin simultaneously makes his picks and criticizes them. [2:07] Evan breaks down the Rangers’ hitting problems now that Bruce Bochy has finally pieced together a bullpen. [43:56] Kevin and David discuss the ‘90s style of basketball the Mavs played in squaring their series with the Clippers and stealing home-court advantage, while Jake Oettinger’s problems in goal for the Stars in Game 1 allowed the Golden Knights to do the same. And it’s another bad blazer for Scottie Scheffler.

[5:45] Evan tells us what to expect of Jack Leiter in his start Thursday as well as whether Jose Leclerc’s problems are mechanical or mental. [28:45] David says he’s never seen Jerry Jones so tone-deaf regarding fans’ disappointment in the Cowboys. [50:24] Kevin says anything less than a Western Conference finals run for the Mavs should be considered a disappointment, which tells you how far they’ve come in the last two months, and the guys marvel over Scottie Scheffler’s second Masters win, his footwork and the fact that he made it to the Inwood Tavern still wearing his green jacket Sunday.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant discuss [6:13] Wyatt Langford’s impact on the Rangers’ thinking this spring.

[35:45] Kevin and Evan predict Caitlin Clark will win the NCAAs on the women’s side and Kevin is too chicken to guess outside the chalk on the men’s side. [49:51] In the potpourri segment, they also talk about the pluses and minuses of the local owners, the Cowboys’ free agent losses and the problems it makes for their draft, as well as how, of all things, Mavs guard Kyrie Irving has been about as good as anyone could have hoped.

Wed, 06 Mar 2024 01:45:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss the topics of the day, [7:20] starting with a question of whether the Rangers screwed up by trading Cole Ragans, now projected as one of the game’s best starters, for Aroldis Chapman. Does a World Series title mitigate that? Do the Rangers learn a lesson as a result? [31:40] David tells us that it looks like Tyron Smith will not be back at left tackle for the Cowboys. Does that mean the Cowboys automatically go with a left tackle with their first pick? [47:55] The Mavs have gone from a seven-game winning streak to a face-first flop. If they don’t make the playoffs, Kevin asks, will Jason Kidd pay for the miss?

David says it reflects Jerry’s desire, at 81, to keep a coach who’s cultivated a productive relationship with his quarterback, Dak Prescott.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [7:40] the Cowboys’ controversial win over the Lions, which, coupled with another Eagles loss, gave them control of the division and a potential path to home playoff games. The Cowboys’ one caveat: lack of a running game. David says the too-cute attempt by the Lions to disguise an eligible receiver didn’t obscure the fact that the refs got it wrong again. [33:15] Kevin says the league risks its credibility with continual high-profile mistakes and needs to consider any and all remedies. Evan says the first priority should be making officials full-time instead of part-time employees.

[26:59] Kevin and Evan debate the pitching moves the Rangers continue to make and whether they’ll have enough before the cavalry arrives at the trade deadline. The guys also try to make sense of TV strife and the impact it’ll have on viewers as well as the Rangers.

SportsDay insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore [1:13] discuss the worst Cowboys loss in the history of their storied rivalry with the 49ers and the fallout. The gap has only widened between the two NFC rivals. Has the team lost faith in Mike McCarthy? Dak Prescott? How they respond to a difficult Monday night game on the road against the Chargers will be telling, Kevin says. David calls it a “crossroads.” [28:07] Going into Tuesday’s Game 3 against the Orioles, the Rangers can count on a vastly improved defense this season, the most underrated aspect of their success, Evan says. The guys discuss the influence of Evan Carter on the rest of the lineup as it becomes more selective.

[28:25] David says the Cowboys are better prepared for the 49ers than they were in either of their last playoff exits, though Kevin says their red zone issues can be traced to the makeup of the roster.

[36:02] And the fellas marvel at the $100 million SMU raised the week after announcing its pending move to the Atlantic Coast Conference as well as the impact Deion Sanders continues to make in his short time at Colorado.

[23:24] Evan provides the limited alternatives at Bruce Bochy’s disposal to fix his bullpen, one of the worst in club history. Evan even suggests bringing up Evan Carter to replace Leody Taveras in center. [51:54] And the guys discuss the undeniable impact Deion Sanders already has made at Colorado, which doesn’t excuse the post-game pressers.

[29:45] Kevin and Evan Grant mull the Rangers’ losing streak and not one but two blown saves by the bullpen in Monday’s loss to Arizona.

David says they ought to draft a kicker every year. Meanwhile, Zack Martin’s fines keep climbing in his holdout. David says the Cowboys almost surely have to cave. [16:24] Evan gives the breakdown, so to speak, on Josh Jung’s thumb and how the club’s depth has allowed it to overcome injury after injury. That depth of talent, along with a three-ring manager, deep-pockets owners and an aggressive GM, is the perfect storm of events that Rangers fans have never enjoyed, Kevin says, and bodes well, Evan adds, for the future of the state’s baseball rivalry.

Thu, 03 Aug 2023 00:00:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore [2:45] discuss the Rangers’ wild deadline activity, and Evan ranks it among the most significant in his 25 years covering the team. If all goes right, Kevin says, the last three months of the season will dictate who got the best Met: the Rangers with Max Scherzer, or the Astros with Justin Verlander. Kevin and Evan also discuss the lineup. Corey Seager’s imminent return and a surging Mitch Garver should help. David and Kevin [34:15] discuss whether Zeke Elliott really has a future with the Cowboys, and why Jerry Jones keeps pretending he does. David says he expects Zack Martin’s holdout to continue despite the mounting fines. He also says this might be the most well-balanced Cowboys team that has gone to camp in a couple of decades.

With Kevin away accepting a fancy sportswriting award, Evan and David are left to fumble through [3:50] while worrying over the Rangers’ sudden lack of production in key situations.

[34:21] David has a hot take on the Mavs’ magic of draft day — basically that it shouldn’t have been allowed to happen. And, as always, we ponder: Should the Mavs bring Kyrie back?

[17:40] Going forward, Kevin wonders if Pete DeBoer needs to follow league trends and go with a tandem goalie instead of putting so much on Jake Oettinger. Evan crunches the numbers and comes up with the fact that the Rangers are historically good ... and still just three games ahead of the Astros. Can the Rangers sustain what they’ve built so far? [36:41] David explains why DeAndre Hopkins might have been a good fit before the Cowboys signed Brandin Cooks, but not now. And, what, exactly, constitutes a balanced offense?

Rangers growing up, Micah Parsons branching out and what’s up with the Stars?

Wed, 10 May 2023 01:51:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss the topics of the day, [8:54] starting with the Rangers’ resiliency when things (e.g., the bullpen) go wrong. Ezequiel Duran and Leody Taveras are two prime examples of what’s gone right. Evan says the Rangers have tinkered with Taveras’ stance, and the results are obvious. Kevin says Duran may have plugged two spots: left field and a backup to Corey Seager at short. David says it’s OK that Micah Parsons is training away from the team, at least for now. [32:30] Kevin worries that too much work at defensive end could wear down Micah’s considerable athletic traits, which is why the Cowboys have tried to make the defense more “Micah-friendly,” David says. [45:40] In the ever-popular potpourri segment, the guys talk this week’s Byron Nelson tournament and wonder if the Stars can bounce back from an awful Game 3 against Seattle.

[54:10] The guys give their Stars predictions against the Kraken, and Evan goes one further, projecting the Stanley Cup rep from the West. Hint: Think local.

[3:15] Each of our insiders picks a player for the Cowboys, with David ranging widest. [25:13] Evan describes the implosion in the back of the Rangers’ bullpen.

[46:20] David notes that Mark Cuban is finally seeing the same scrutiny that Jerry Jones has endured for years. And the guys decide that the Stars, with the best goalie, are the better team, but they can’t let the Wild push them around anymore.

Wed, 12 Apr 2023 01:13:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [2:49] the Mavs’ finishing debacle. David wonders if the commissioner could take away the Mavs’ hard-earned first-round pick as a penalty for tanking. Evan says the Kyrie Irving deal blew up in the Mavs’ faces because they didn’t win in a weakened West. [22:35] Kevin says the fact that Jake Odorizzi is out for the season and no one’s hardly noticed says everything about the job Chris Young did putting this Rangers roster together. Evan wants to see the guys down on the farm ready to jump in for spot starts this summer, and they’re not off to good starts. [44:48] David breaks down some of the top prospects and the Cowboys’ potential interest come the NFL draft at the end of this month.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore lead off a chock-full podcast with the Mavs’ predicament this week: Go all out for a scant chance of making the playoffs, or tank to keep their first-round pick?

Thu, 30 Mar 2023 01:39:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant discuss Rangers opening day on Thursday, [10:50] from the opening ceremonies to the last man on the roster. Evan says the Rangers have never had an ace like Jacob deGrom, not in the last 40 years, anyway. Kevin wonders if Ezequiel Duran has played too well to be a trade chip. [31:40] Kevin and Evan take sides on their favorite coach in the women’s Final Four this week. Hint: Kevin’s right. The guys also make their picks on the men’s side, where Kevin says the tournament game has changed. [50:48] The Mavs’ No. 1 problem isn’t making the playoffs, Kevin says, it’s finding out why Luka’s unhappy. And the insiders finish with thoughts about the Cowboys’ offensive line and what it means for the draft.

Excitement building for Rangers, Cowboys. The Mavs? Not so much

Wed, 22 Mar 2023 16:50:00 -0000

With Kevin Sherrington on vacation, [2:00] Evan Grant and David Moore have a nice relaxed visit to break down what the Rangers still have to answer in the final days of spring training, what’s gone right in Arizona and how excited the World Baseball Classic has left us. Speaking of excited, [19:40] we dive into something completely foreign: The Cowboys giving fans hope with their moves in free agency and the trade market. We ponder Zeke Elliott’s legacy in Dallas and whether his performance declined or the running back position changed on him. And finally, [35:50] we stop everything down to consider the relative level of excitement the Mavs are generating these days. Well, two out of three wasn’t bad.

A deep dive on the Cowboys and Rangers rosters, and a white flag for the Mavs

Wed, 15 Mar 2023 03:33:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant look at the rosters of the Cowboys and Rangers and where both clubs go from here. [4:00] Evan says only a handful of questions remain about the Rangers’ roster with two weeks left in spring training. Jacob deGrom’s debut Monday calmed Rangers fans and excited Rangers teammates and officials. [ 31:59] David says the Cowboys need a veteran wide receiver, but not Odell Beckham Jr. at $20 million a year. And he won’t get that money anywhere, David says. [50:37] And Kevin sends up his white flag for the Mavs. Because Kyrie Irving and Luka Doncic have played so little together and the team has lost last year’s chemistry, neither Kevin nor David likes their playoff chances.

Rangers’ roster moves, Cowboys in free agency and Luka Doncic’s technical fouls

Wed, 08 Mar 2023 04:30:04 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant discuss the big topics of the day, [3:42] starting with what the Rangers do in the outfield now that everything else seems pretty much wrapped up. Kevin thinks Adolis Garcia would be a nice temporary fit in center if the Rangers decide to keep Clint Frazier. Evan explains the pluses and pitfalls of it all. [26:55] The guys make their cases for Cowboys free agency. Evan wants the Cowboys to sign a veteran wide receiver. Kevin says David wins the day by suggesting Bobby Wagner at linebacker. [46:26] In the potpourri segment, the insiders outline Mark Adams’ demise from Coach of the Year to coach-out-the-door. They also wonder when Luka Doncic grows up and stops barking at refs.

Martin Perez still dealing, a deal for the Cowboys, Jason Kidd schools Luka Doncic

Wed, 01 Mar 2023 01:33:49 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant rehash spring training memories. Kevin’s least favorite: The time he had to spend the night in his rental car because Evan turned off his hearing aids. [17:33] Kevin wonders if Martin Perez might still be the Rangers’ best pitcher. If he is, Evan says, the season has either been an utter success or complete collapse, no in-between. Evan says Chris Young’s experience as a pitcher gives the Rangers’ organization a different perspective and maybe a different horizon. [47:35] Kevin proposes the Cowboys trade for Rams cornerback Jalen Ramsey, thus making up for not drafting him in 2016. He also wishes Luka Doncic happy birthday and says the best gift he can get is more schooling from Jason Kidd.

How far can Mavs go, should Cowboys tag Tony Pollard and what’s left for the Rangers?

Wed, 22 Feb 2023 02:59:39 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss recent top local stories, starting with the buzz from NBA All-Star weekend. [00:40] The All-Stars love the Mavs’ addition of Kyrie Irving, Kevin notes, but players always appreciate the addition of stars. Will the move have organizational impact? David says, not so much. [19:49] Evan goes over the Rangers’ left-field situation and the impact of a platoon. [38:12] David tells us why the Cowboys should place the franchise tag on running back Tony Pollard. Kevin says that’s fine, as long as they add a banger to play a little bully ball. [1:00:28] And, last but not least, the guys rate sub sandwich shops in Surprise, Ariz., the home of Rangers spring training.

Kyrie’s AAC debut, Rangers’ black holes, best Super Bowl ever ... until the end

Wed, 15 Feb 2023 02:28:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant are joined by Mavericks beat writer [00:12] Callie Caplan to discuss the home debut of Kyrie Irving in a 124-121 loss to Minnesota. Callie tells us that Kyrie’s addition has energized the Mavs’ roster and brings a different gear. Losing two games in a row in the final seconds, the latest because Kyrie and Luka Doncic couldn’t decide who should take the last shot, isn’t necessarily a bad thing, David said. It shows they’re both willing to accommodate the other. [16:31] Evan tries to correct Kevin when he says shortstop and second base were “black holes” for the Rangers the first couple months of last season, but Kevin sticks to his assertion. [38:03] And the guys debate the merits of a Super Bowl marred by a bad ending yet leaves us quantifying where Patrick Mahomes ranks in the pantheon of all-time quarterbacks.

Wed, 08 Feb 2023 03:07:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore [2:53] discuss the national sports news of the week: the Mavs’ controversial acquisition of Kyrie Irving. David calls it an even bigger risk than Roy Tarpley. Evan says he’s conflicted about what he concedes is a good basketball move. Kevin expects Irving to be on his best behavior, because he doesn’t have any more leverage. [25:35] Evan gives his five topics of spring for the Rangers. [47:50] The guys make their Super Bowl picks and discuss the elevation of Brian Schottenheimer to Cowboys offensive coordinator.

Tough love for Dak, Luka chirps and what’s up at the Dallas Zoo?

Wed, 01 Feb 2023 11:00:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [7:09] the overhaul of the Cowboys’ offensive staff and what it means for quarterback Dak Prescott. Evan says the fortunes of Dak and Mike McCarthy are now intertwined. Kevin says that if Dak has another year like the last one, chances are neither will be back in 2024. Evan tells us [29:10] that Corey Seager has never looked happier as a Ranger, using an elephant metaphor in the process and prompting Kevin to ask if Seager’s behind all the shenanigans out at the Dallas Zoo. The guys seem eager to get to the bottom of the mystery. [40:42] David describes an NBA culture in which it’s OK for an opposing coach to chirp at an opposing superstar, even if it results in Luka Doncic going off for 53 points. David and Kevin discuss the limited options for the Mavs before the trade deadline and what that portends for their playoff hopes as well as Luka’s contentment.

Another humbling end for the Dallas Cowboys ... plus what’s next?

Wed, 25 Jan 2023 01:40:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant [5:14] discuss the Cowboys’ 19-12 loss to the 49ers in the divisional round playoff, prolonging a streak of 27 years without an appearance in the NFC title game. Kevin says that if you’d told him before the game the Cowboys’ defense would hold the 49ers to 19 points, he’d have booked a flight to Philadelphia for the conference championship game. [23:00] The guys consider four key Cowboys — Mike McCarthy, Dan Quinn, Kellen Moore and Dak Prescott — and answer the questions of whether each will/should be back. What went wrong with Dak this year? How can he be fixed? All that and more in this special all-Cowboys, all-the-time podcast.

Prescott bests Brady, kickers and the yips, Rangers’ search for a left fielder

Thu, 19 Jan 2023 02:27:49 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and David Moore discuss [00:29] the Cowboys’ surprising dominance of QB Tom Brady and the Buccaneers in Monday’s wild card game. Kevin says Dak Prescott’s performance is repeatable against the San Francisco 49ers in the divisional round, if only because he went back to being the quarterback we knew before this season. David says last year’s playoff loss to the Niners was a focus and motivation for the Cowboys the past 11 months and should be a factor now. [20:45] Evan Grant joined the conversation to talk about Brett Maher and kickers suffering from the yips, Saturday Night Live and also who didn’t return his calls this week. [41:21] Evan then commandeered the mic to catch up on some Rangers news, such as the ongoing search for a left fielder and the bullpen without Brett Martin.

TCU’s not-so-excellent adventure; Cowboys playoffs; and not so fast, Sean Payton

Wed, 11 Jan 2023 03:27:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [5:00] the Cowboys’ miserable loss to Washington and what that portends for a rematch with Tampa Bay. The guys take positions on their biggest concerns. David says if the Cowboys lose, any questions about Mike McCarthy’s status depend on the degree of embarrassment. If it’s anything like the loss to Washington, Kevin says, Jerry Jones better make sure Sean Payton hasn’t signed any papers with Denver. Evan says Jerry probably already has Payton on hold. [33:30] The guys ponder the question of whether it would have been better if TCU had lost to Michigan in the semis than to endure a historic blowout against Georgia. Sonny Dykes has to figure out a way to sell the ending of what had been a magical season.

Rangers’ rotation, TCU in the title game and life and death on a football field

Wed, 04 Jan 2023 02:03:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant discuss [4:04] the traumatic event of Monday night’s game between Buffalo and Cincinnati, when the Bills' Damar Hamlin collapsed after suffering sudden cardiac arrest. Kevin tells about his brother’s recovery from SCA as well as the case of Detroit’s Chuck Hughes, an Abilene and UTEP alum and the only NFL player ever to die on a football field. [37:57] Evan and Kevin talk about the prospects of a six-man rotation. Evan wonders if the Rangers could flip Jake Odorizzi for a left fielder. [49:20] And Evan speculates on whether his beloved Georgia Bulldogs can stop the freight train that’s become of the little engine that could, TCU. For all of their differences, Evan notes, both programs are led by quarterbacks with unlikely stories.

Evan and cows, Parsons’ slump, the Rangers’ outfield, Christmas-Hanukkah wishes

Wed, 21 Dec 2022 02:22:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [5:04] Evan’s work with utters as well as the Cowboys’ utter failure in the second half against Jacksonville and what it means going forward. Say what you want about Dak Prescott’s issues, Kevin says, but the Cowboys’ transcendent player is Micah Parsons, and if he’s not great, the Cowboys suffer. David says the Cowboys need to beat the Eagles if for no other reason than to get their heads right for a playoff push.[25:18] Evan and Kevin discuss the Rangers’ outfield and the difference Michael Conforto could make. [38:00] And it’s Christmas and Hanukkah wishes for all of our faithful listeners.

Cowboys escape, Rangers’ top-tier pitching, Mike Leach’s impact, Texas’ trouble

Tue, 13 Dec 2022 22:15:21 -0000

With SportsDay Insider host Kevin Sherrington out, Evan Grant and David Moore actually get to talk to one another for a change. [00:48] David says of the Cowboys’ most recent escape from a trap game: Don’t focus on how close the game was with the Texans, focus on what happened at the end. He opines on T.Y. Hilton’s arrival and the impact on the OBJ drama. Also: Should we just go ahead and acknowledge there are two more games with the Eagles remaining? If so, what impact does the first one have on the second? [19:00] With the dust of the winter meetings settled, Evan puts the Rangers’ new rotation into perspective and runs through the rest of the winter shopping list. [32:00] In the wake of Mike Leach’s death, we remember his impact on football, which extends well beyond his time at Texas Tech. And finally, we ask: What message will Texas’ handling of the Chris Beard domestic violence arrest have on the school and its athletic program?

Cowboys' courtship of OBJ, Rangers' marriage with deGrom and the CFP leaves Alabama for TCU

Tue, 06 Dec 2022 22:12:57 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant discuss [00:14] Odell Beckham Jr.'s courtside visit to the Mavs-Suns game and the chances he signs with the Cowboys. David says if he signs with anyone, it'll be the Cowboys, but at what price? And how much could he play this year? [11:44] Evan says the Rangers weren't rolling the dice with Jacob deGrom, because he's great when healthy. But they won't narrow the gap much with Justin Verlander-less Houston unless they add another starter and bat. [24:40] Not only were the guys surprised that the College Football Playoff committee held TCU at No. 3 after its loss in OT in the Big 12 title game and turning its back on Alabama as a result, they came up with a new word to describe it. Listen to find out.

OBJ, winter meetings, Kemba and the Mavs and TCU in the CFP

Tue, 29 Nov 2022 22:13:39 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant discuss a wide swath of hot topics this week, starting [00:50] with the Cowboys' three-game lead-up to a showdown with the Eagles on Christmas Eve. David says the Cowboys are still interested in Odell Beckham Jr. even after the incident in Miami. Kevin says it's not just what he can still do on a field, it's the threat of what he can do that occupies opposing defenses. [20:35] Evan makes a shopping list for the Rangers at the winter meetings next week. Kevin wonders if Chris Young wants to win so badly, he's willing to overpay for Jacob deGrom or Carlos Rodon. [36:30] Kevin and David discuss the impact of Kemba Walker on the dysfunctional Mavs, who can't shoot straight. Or dribble, apparently. And the guys agree that if TCU beats Kansas State in the Big 12 title game Saturday at JerryWorld, the Horned Frogs are in. And if they don't, they're out.

Cowboys Super Bowl buzz, a visit with Bochy and Horned Frogs rule

Tue, 22 Nov 2022 20:27:02 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant [00:55] discuss the Cowboys' historic win over the Vikings and what it portends. Evan asks Kevin if the Cowboys are closer to the team that dominated the Vikings or the one that blew a 14-point fourth-quarter lead against Green Bay. The guys also discuss whether Jerry Jones has any business talking Super Bowl this soon. [21:40] Evan tells us about his visit to Nashville to watch a World Series game with Bruce Bochy, the Rangers' new manager. [30:10] Kevin says he doesn't know if TCU is really one of the four best teams in the nation, but it's certainly the most exciting. Which is a lot more than Texas A&M and Texas can say at this point as Sonny Dykes and the Frogs take center stage in the Lone Star State.

Rebuilding Cowboys’ swag, Rangers rotation and it’s Sonny over Texas

Thu, 17 Nov 2022 03:09:03 -0000

SportsDay Insider’s Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant [1:20] discuss the Cowboys’ “abominable” loss to the Packers in which David says both the offense and defense failed miserably. Kevin asks if the cold could be blamed for Dak’s miserable start and says Sunday’s game in Minnesota is must-win.

[19:55] Evan and Kevin discuss possibilities for the Rangers’ rotation and lineup. Evan outlines the plus and minus of a Jacob deGrom or Carlos Rodon over Nathan Eovaldi and Jameson Taillon. [37:20] Evan asks if Texas should have hired Sonny Dykes when it had the chance, and Kevin says he was more qualified for the job than Steve Sarkisian.

Packers' problems, hot stove, hotter Horned Frogs and hottest Luka

Tue, 08 Nov 2022 20:46:42 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [1:14] the Cowboys' upcoming game in Green Bay and the Packers' disappointing season. Aaron Rodgers has won seven of his last eight games against the Cowboys, but Kevin says if the Cowboys don't win Sunday, we'll need to rethink just how far this team can go. David gauges a possible Odell Beckham Jr. signing, and the guys analyze the impact it would make on CeeDee Lamb. (Spoiler alert: Good impact). [16:32] Evan breaks down the GM meetings and any trade possibilities the Rangers' Chris Young may be considering. [29:18] Kevin says if TCU wins out, it should make the College Football Playoff. [37:12] And David says there's still plenty of time to find chemistry, but it'd be nice if someone took a little of the load off Luka Doncic once in a while.

Cowboys’ balancing act, the high cost of Rangers winning, dumbing it down for college QBs

Wed, 02 Nov 2022 10:00:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders' Kevin, David and Evan [1:03] discuss the Cowboys’ win over the Bears and what it means going forward in the season’s second half. David called it Kellen Moore’s best game calling plays this year and wonders if Zeke Elliott’s absence made it easier. Evan says the simple act of Dak Prescott carrying a handful of times makes a difference, and the Cowboys have to balance that along with the shares by Tony Pollard and Zeke.

[19:22] Evan says the Rangers have several ways to go with Martin Perez, including a one-year qualifying offer. Kevin says they’ve got to sign Perez to a multi-year deal and tries not to take offense at Evan’s response to his call for the Rangers to trade for Shohei Ohtani. [36:22] And TCU keeps the state’s CFP football hopes alive while Jimbo Fisher may have to settle for finding a quarterback at last.

Jerry's right on Dak, Rangers got it right with Bochy and Luka rising

Tue, 25 Oct 2022 19:10:46 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant [5:05] discuss the Cowboys' win over the Lions and Dak Prescott's in-game progress. David says Dak realized he was forcing the issue and subsequently played to the offense's strengths. Kevin reluctantly says Jerry Jones was right to say Dak should be featured in more RPO, and Kevin goes Jerry one further by saying Kellen Moore should give Dak more bootlegs and rollouts in the red zone. [23:15] Evan and Kevin can't find anything wrong with the hiring of Bruce Bochy, the most accomplished manager in Rangers history. [37:00] And the guys discuss the wide-open Western Conference, the emergence of Christian Wood as a legit second star and what makes Luka Doncic so unique.

Dak's back, so are the Mavs and can TCU keep it up?

Tue, 18 Oct 2022 19:12:09 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and David Moore [00:40] discuss the Cowboys' loss to the Eagles, which fell on the defense in its worst performance this season. Until Dan Quinn's defense gets better at stopping the run, David says, expect the Lions and Bears week to follow the Eagles' game plan. David says Dak Prescott doesn't need to play "hero ball' in his return; expect, instead, more run-pass options and the difference four or five plays a game can make. [20:25] With the Mavs opening Wednesday in Phoenix, the Insiders discuss the new lineup and the adjustment Luka Doncic will have to make without Jalen Brunson next to him. Can they make the conference finals again? David and Kevin discuss the chances. [31:40] And Kevin counts TCU as a legit College Football Playoff contender, with David pointing to the Horned Frogs' Nov. 12 game in Austin as a prominent factor for the CFP jury.

Cowboys' balance, Rangers' balance sheet and a shift in the balance of power at the State Fair

Tue, 11 Oct 2022 19:05:38 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [00:35] the Cowboys' big win over the Rams and what beating the defending Super Bowl champs means going forward against the Eagles. David says this is the most balanced offense the Cowboys have demonstrated since Dak Prescott's rookie season. Kevin says they need to maintain it once Dak gets back, which probably won't be this week. [15:05] Evan says the Rangers need to boost their budget considerably if they want to live up to their promise to be contenders next season. [34:35] And Kevin says he's never seen a Texas-OU game like Saturday's. The Sooners looked completely lost -- something we've seen from the Longhorns occasionally, but rarely OU -- and the Longhorns trotted out the kind of QB the Sooners used to be famous for.

Cowboys' open lane in the NFC, Texas-OU week and Aaron Judge denied for a day

Tue, 04 Oct 2022 16:54:25 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and David Moore [1:09] discuss the wide-open state of affairs in the NFC, where the Eagles are the only undefeated team and the Rams, this week's opponent, just got humbled by San Francisco. David credits Cooper Rush for keeping the Cowboys in the race and predicts he'll start against the Rams. David also says Mike McCarthy has learned from past mistakes, and they'll take those lessons under advisement once Dak Prescott returns, possibly against the Eagles. [22:55] It's Texas-OU week, and though neither team is ranked for the first time since 1998, it's still Texas-OU. Greatest annual sporting event in Texas, as Kevin has said and written many, many times. But, if TCU and Oklahoma State are the Big 12's only CFP hopes, Kevin says, it doesn't look good. [36:23] Last but not least, the Rangers managed to avoid making history of a couple types Monday. But, if Aaron Judge hits No. 62 off a Ranger, is that really such a bad thing?

Cowboys building, Rangers rebuilding and Big 12 running out of CFP possibilities

Tue, 27 Sep 2022 18:17:59 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant [2:49] discuss the Cowboys' win over the Giants on Monday Night Football and what it means going forward. Evan says the Cowboys look like they'll be better than we thought after Dak Prescott broke his thumb. Kevin says the Cowboys' defense is evolving away from a turnover-only unit to a well-rounded bunch that may rank in the NFL's top five. And once Dak returns, they should lean into a more conservative offensive model as a result. [20:13] Evan outlines how many starting pitchers it'll take to fix the Rangers, especially with the Mariners looming as an equal with the Astros. Spend, spend, spend, Evan tells Ray Davis. [35:10] And the fellas provide an early outlook on the Big 12's CFP chances now that Oklahoma has lost once and Texas twice, with Evan calling Oklahoma State the league's best shot.

The greatness of Micah and Luka, pitchers for the Rangers and the problem with finding college quarterbacks

Tue, 20 Sep 2022 20:28:35 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore [1:08] compare Micah Parsons' early impact and where he may already rank in Cowboys history and how that compares to the Luka Doncic effect. [12:58] David gives his assessment of where the Cowboys really stand with the potential return of Dak Prescott and Michael Gallup. [24:35] Evan drops a few free agent names that Chris Young might want to consider for the Rangers' rotation next year. [35:53] And Kevin analyzes the impact of Max Johnson on Texas A&M's offense going into the Aggies' game against Arkansas this week at JerryWorld while all three panelists pick a winner for the Iron Skillet.

Cowboys' tailspin, Longhorn and Aggie QBs and Jung-at-heart Rangers

Tue, 13 Sep 2022 19:09:49 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore [3:20] dive into the morass from the worst opener in Jerry Jones' history. [5:38] David reports that surgery on Dak Prescott's right thumb indicates he may be back by mid-October instead of mid-November. But with the offensive line in disarray, penalties abounding and CeeDee Lamb MIA, our panelists predict a poor record for the Cowboys while Dak's out. [24:00] Josh Jung made a splash his first week in the bigs, but suddenly there are other questions on the left side of the Rangers' infield, with Evan noting Corey Seager has struggled since Chris Woodward's dismissal. [37:50] And it's a merry-go-round for QBs at Texas and Texas A&M. Steve Sarkisian may have found something at Texas, while Jimbo Fisher could be losing something at A&M.

Dinks and doinks, depth charts and decoding Jerry Jones

Tue, 30 Aug 2022 19:31:26 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [1:40] the advent of football season and the Rangers' imminent demise. David outlines the lack of depth in the Cowboys' offensive line and what's likely to happen. Evan requires an interpretation of Jerry's latest comments about last season's playoff exit, and David explains what it means for the Cowboys going forward. [20:45] Kevin analyzes the quarterback situations at Texas and Texas A&M, and the Insiders lament Steve Sarkisian's decision not to release depth charts this year. And [28:45] Evan tells us what the Rangers fared about themselves this season, and what they still hope to find out about Josh Jung.

How far would Chris Young crawl to hire Bruce Bochy, and do the Cowboys know they need another WR?

Tue, 23 Aug 2022 18:35:20 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore are back to talk about one of the most tumultuous weeks in Rangers' history. Besides defining Jon Daniels' legacy, which means once again clarifying Nolan Ryan's, Evan tries to figure out what motivated Ray Davis to fire his GM with 50 games left in the season. He also makes Bruce Bochy the Rangers' No. 1 target, which Kevin says should be a no-brainer. (23:49) David lists his three biggest personnel moves for the Cowboys, with WR the top concern. He also explains what Stephen Jones meant when he said Dak Prescott had his best training camp yet. Because it hasn't translated on the field yet.

Are the Rangers finally finding pitchers, and did the Cowboys find the next Lawrence Taylor?

Tue, 09 Aug 2022 19:50:54 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and David Moore discuss the latest from Oxnard, [00:53] where the kicking competition is heating up with a whole set of new kickers. David doesn't think Dak Prescott will play in much if any of the three preseason games. He'll get his reps in scrimmages. [18:50] Kevin asks if Micah Parsons, who may get more time as a pass rusher than we thought, is the second coming of Lawrence Taylor. [23:25] The guys compare the pitching histories of the Rangers and Astros and how organizations build reputations as a result. If the Rangers have 10 good pitchers in their system, Kevin says, they can hope two, maybe three actually go on to solid big-league careers. And that's probably good enough.

Rocker's a Ranger, LIV's a threat and McCarthy's toast if no playoffs

Tue, 19 Jul 2022 19:23:59 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss the week's big sports news, including the fact that the Rangers [00:10] shocked the world by drafting Kumar Rocker with the third pick. Evan says it allowed the Rangers to create the second surprise of the draft by taking Brock Porter, a first-round talent, in the fourth. [17:26] David gives his three storylines for training camp, led by Mike McCarthy's job security. Or lack thereof. Kevin says whether Sean Payton is available or not, McCarthy will be gone if he doesn't become the first Cowboys coach since Chan Gailey to make the playoffs in back-to-back seasons. [34:00] And, in the popular potpourri segment, the guys talk Big 12-Pac-12 realignment and LIV Golf's first really big catch.

Kevin says it's adding starting pitching now; Evan wonders if they should wait. Evan offers his thoughts on what the Rangers will do with the third pick of the draft this weekend.

[35:22] In the ever-popular potpourri, Kevin asks David if the Mavs are giving up on small ball, the system that got them to the Western Conference Finals.

Mavs wait on Brunson, Rangers wait on Seager while Texas' wait on QBs appears over

Tue, 28 Jun 2022 18:49:31 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore [4:00] discuss whether Jalen Brunson stays with the Mavs, a team he likes and where he has a better chance of winning, or does he go to the Knicks to run the show and play for his father? Evan says a pro athlete's decision invariably comes down to money and a shot at winning, but David notes that family may change the dynamic. Jalen may also have a bone to pick with the Mavs. [17:30] Evan points out that Corey Seager may not help himself by taking a private approach to his hitting slump. Metrics and scouting allow teams to make faster adjustments, Kevin says, and hitters need all the help they can get. [30:22] And the insiders discuss the impact of Arch Manning's commitment to Texas, a program historically low on QB talent.

Rangers' lackluster leaders, Jerry's lust for Payton and Greece is the word

Tue, 21 Jun 2022 20:48:40 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant discuss the leadership styles of the Rangers' two highest-paid stars, Corey Seager and Marcus Semien, and the downside of investing so much money in such low-key personalities. Kevin says that as soon as Sean Payton raises his hand and says he'd like to be the Cowboys' coach, Jerry Jones will put Mike McCarthy's stuff on the front porch of the Star. Evan wonders if Jerry is willing to pay the price. And in the potpourri segment, the insiders talk about a new Stars coach, the Mavs' big trade, golf, the World Cup coming to Dallas in '26 and the Greece T-shirt Evan got from the last time the World Cup played in Dallas.

Just how good are the Rangers, and how bad is the idea of LIV Golf?

Tue, 14 Jun 2022 18:08:23 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant [6:08] discuss the prospects for the Rangers as they near a reckoning about playoff contention. Evan says the Rangers shouldn't deal for a rental player because they're still not good enough. Kevin says rentals are out, but the Rangers owe it to their fans to compete for the tournament if possible. Both Insiders say it might be enough if Ezequiel Duran, Josh Smith, Leody Taveras and other kids make viable contributions this year. [23:38] A definite local contender this week is Big D's Big 3 -- Scottie Scheffler, Jordan Spieth and Will Zalatoris -- at the U.S. Open. Also, everybody's got a right to make as much money as possible, but, with LIV Golf, you have to consider the source.

Rangers screwing up chances, Cowboys paying tight ends and . . . Yahtzee?

Tue, 07 Jun 2022 16:45:19 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant discuss the Rangers' recent inability to get over the .500 hump and into second place in the AL West [1:15]. Kevin says Matt Bush shouldn't be allowed anywhere near the ninth inning. Evan says the bigger issue is the fact that the Rangers' big-ticket signees, Corey Seager and Marcus Semien, haven't carried the team. Until they pick it up, the Rangers will founder. Dalton Schultz wants a long-term deal from the Cowboys [20:57], leading Kevin to say he's not worth it. Evan says maybe. The fellas also discuss the Mavs' off-season [16:24], the new LIV Golf tour [25:04] and the evergreen nature of Yahtzee, a game for all generations.

Seager's getting paid, Brunson's got receipts and DeMarcus has a new hairdo

Wed, 01 Jun 2022 19:41:20 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss the end of the Mavs' season and its impact on Jalen Brunson's future as well as the start of something -- maybe -- with the .500 Rangers. [2:00] Kevin asks Evan if Corey Seager's 11 home runs -- including nine at Globe Life Field -- are a good sign considering he's under contract for 10 years. [13:30] In order to find a center who can rebound and provide a little interior defense, David predicts the Mavs will sign Brunson, give Tim Hardaway Jr. a little time to reassert himself then decide which of the guards to deal during the season. [28:00] And Kevin and David discuss DeMarcus Lawrence's new dreadless look and just how much better the Cowboys' defense can get in Dan Quinn's second season as defensive coordinator.

What's next for Mavs, what's up with Rangers and stupid things people say

Tue, 24 May 2022 19:56:54 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore take on a ton of topics, starting with the [1:25] Mavs' next steps after their surprising run to the Western Conference Finals. One benefit, Kevin says, is that they now know they don't necessarily need another superstar. Just a center who can rebound and create his own shots. [17:00] Evan says the Rangers' $500 million middle infield needs to start hitting to excite the fan base now that the Rangers hold center stage. [30:09] The Cowboys probably aren't done in free agency, says David, who thinks Anthony Barr could be a target. [33:38] The Colonial is this week, hosting one of golf's budding Dallas rivalries in Scottie Scheffler, Jordan Spieth and Will Zalatoris. [41:27] And who looked worse in last week's catfight: Nick Saban or Jimbo Fisher?

Tue, 17 May 2022 19:15:23 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss [1:35] Sunday's Game 7 doubleheader featuring the Mavs and Stars. Evan moderates a discussion between Kevin and David about what the Mavs need to do to beat the Warriors in the Western Conference Finals. David says the sign of a great team or player is when it happens before you're ready, the case with both the Mavs and Luka Doncic. [26:25] Kevin says it's time for Rick Bowness and his defense-first-and-last approach to go if the Stars want take advantage of the play of Jake Oettinger, the best home-grown goalie the organization has produced since it moved to Dallas. [42:45] And Evan tells us what he learned about the Rangers while he was laid up.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and David Moore discuss a wide range of topics, starting [1:04] with the Mavs' surprising rebound from an 0-2 start to square the series. Kevin says the Mavs have exposed the flaw in the Suns' offensive approach, but David argues it'll be a different story in Phoenix. He also predicts the Suns in six. Kevin says the Stars will go further in the playoffs than the Mavs. [16:55] The Insiders take up the Quixotic quest of Eric Johnson, Dallas' mayor, to bring a second NFL team to Dallas. Not only is there no chance, Kevin says, there's no shot at a third NFL team in Texas. [41:00] And in the popular Potpourri segment, the boys talk this week's Nelson and the NCAA's futile attempts to regulate NIL.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore [ 1:13 ] discuss the Mavs' loss to the Suns in Game 1 of the conference semifinals. David says he's not surprised and predicts a much better game Wednesday. Kevin says even when they lost Game 1 to the Jazz, at least a template was in place. There was no template Monday.

[32:55] Evan analyzes the turnaround of the Rangers' rotation and outlines what Willie Calhoun has to do if he's ever going to be the hitter both he and the Rangers hoped he'd be.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss a big week in DFW sports. [ 2:07] Kevin and David predict the Mavs will clinch their first playoff win since the title team in 2011, probably Thursday in Salt Lake City.

[33:30] Evan notes the recent surge in Ranger fortunes but tells Kevin that pitching help probably isn't on the way. They'll have to dance with what brung 'em.

Tue, 19 Apr 2022 18:18:04 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant break down the Mavs' Game 2 win over the Jazz, squaring the series at 1-1 [2:30]. Kevin asks Evan if the Mavs can continue to shoot 3s and get career games from Jalen Brunson, who had 41 points and no turnovers. Evan describes how the Rangers' bullpen has gone wrong [12:39]. Kevin calls it a surprise, noting that whatever else you think of Jon Daniels, he's always built decent bullpens. And the Insiders discuss what's more important for the Cowboys [22:45] in next week's draft: a walk-in starter on the offensive line or a replacement for Randy Gregory?

Luka's leg, Rangers' arms and the hole in the Cowboys

Tue, 12 Apr 2022 21:04:58 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant discuss [2:40] the impact of Luka Doncic's calf strain on the Mavs' playoff hopes starting Saturday against Utah. Despite the uncertainty about Luka, Kevin says the best thing the Mavs have going for them is their finest defense in decades. David says the measuring stick for this season will be how the Mavs fare should they advance to face Phoenix, the best team in the league. [15:38] Evan says it's too early to worry about the Rangers' bullpen, while Kevin says dithering without adding arms could burn up the hopes of players and fans alike. [31:18] And David talks about the unusual depth of this NFL draft and what it could mean for the Cowboys in rebuilding their offensive and defensive lines.

Rangers rotation questions, Final Four fodder and what in the world is Jerry Jones talking about?

Tue, 29 Mar 2022 18:46:21 -0000

[3:47] SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant talk about spring training and what it means for the Rangers' rotation. Kevin wonders if Jon Gray, the projected opening day starter, can have the kind of career turnaround enjoyed by Lance Lynn, Mike Minor and, to an extent, Kyle Gibson. Evan lays out how he thinks the rotation will shape up, based on spreading out the innings-eaters so they don't burn up the bullpen by July. [21:50] Jerry Jones' comments about personal and professional scandals at the NFL meetings prompt Evan to ask why he "obfuscates and bloviates" so much. Some of it is natural, Kevin says, and some of it is planned. Our panelists reveal their championship picks for the men's Final Four and Evan gives us the breakdown on new SMU men's basketball coach Rob Lanier, who comes to the Hilltop from Evan's alma mater.

Tue, 22 Mar 2022 19:07:04 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant discuss the ins and outs of the off-seasons for two of the local clubs. [00:35] The Cowboys missed on Kevin's target, Von Miller, who got a budget-busting contract from Buffalo. David says Dante Fowler doesn't make up for the loss of Randy Gregory. David goes out on a limb to predict that the Cowboys will use the 24th pick to select an offensive lineman as they rebuild the wall in front of Dak Prescott, fresh off "clean-up" surgery for his left shoulder. [17:00] Evan describes the frantic pace of condensed spring training and what it means for Andy Ibanez at third base; in the corner outfield spots; and the rotation, in particular. [34:00] Evan also predicts Texas Tech makes the Final Four as the panel marvels at the defensive evolution of hoops here in Texas.

Cowboys keep a "check-down" tight end, Mavs keep winning and MLB keeps screwing up

Tue, 08 Mar 2022 20:35:50 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and David Moore analyze [1:45] the Cowboys' decision to tag Dalton Schultz while working out a long-term deal to keep the tight end. David notes that critics have a point when saying Schultz isn't a big-play threat, but Kevin says the Cowboys' hand was forced by the injury to Blake Jarwin. David guesses the Cowboys probably won't cut DeMarcus Lawrence, and Randy Gregory may be lost if he finds a better deal. The question is, can he? [28:40] Baseball can't get out of its own way, Kevin says, and our insiders discuss how former Baylor star Brittney Griner finds herself in the middle of an international crisis in Russia.

Tue, 22 Feb 2022 20:06:33 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant [2:41] discuss the highlight of the NBA All-Star weekend for Luka Doncic, which was a hug from Michael Jordan. Also, Kevin cites Callie Caplan's story in which Luka revealed a new diet and regimen that helped him get in shape mid-season and return to his normal level of dominance. [14:02] Kevin and Evan talk about the Cowboys' $2.4 settlement with four Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders after allegations that Rich Dalrymple, the former PR chief, filmed them in their locker room in 2015. [34:00]The Olympics are over, and it was the usual mixed bag of upper-level malfeasance amid athletic highlights.

Super Bowl fallout, the Porzingis trade and a rant against MLB

Tue, 15 Feb 2022 19:52:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore talk about Matthew Stafford's Super Bowl win [1:00] and what it means for his legacy and how much grace a championship earns a player or organization. David argues the point that it's especially important in Los Angeles, where the NFL has never been front burner. [12:10] Kevin makes the point that the Mavs robbed a little glory in 2011 when they blew up the team before it even had a chance to defend its title. [42:40] And Evan rants about how MLB keeps shooting itself in the foot, the latest example of how it wants to get rid of minor league teams. If it wants to do so, fine, Evan says, but help colleges out by funding more scholarships.

Cowboys' Super Bowl drought, Mavs at the deadline and who's watching the Olympics?

Tue, 08 Feb 2022 18:17:10 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore look at the list of Super Bowl droughts [3:05], and Evan says if the Bengals can end theirs, there's hope for the Cowboys yet. Kevin remembers what it was like the last time a Super Bowl was played in the Los Angeles area, when Jerry Jones won the first of his three Lombardi Trophies at the Rose Bowl. [9:00] David makes the point that dynasties usually spring on us quicker than we expect, which doesn't exactly bode well for Dak Prescott. [22:42] Reggie Bullock's recent surge in play for the Mavs makes passing on Thursday's trade deadline a viable option. Still, David says the Mavs have hard decisions to make in the off-season on free agents Dorian Finney-Smith and Jalen Brunson. [34:08] And in the potpourri segment, Evan talks steroids, David worries about Jordan Spieth's treacherous golf shots and Kevin tells us why he likes Winter Olympics over Summer.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant, Callie Caplan and David Moore discuss [3:55] Tom Brady's retirement and his impact on quarterbacks of his generation, including Dak Prescott. [19:18] Evan asks David what the heck Jerry Jones was talking about when explaining why he left Mike McCarthy dangling. David contends that staying in Dallas was Dan Quinn's best move. [27:20] Callie predicts that Luka Doncic will be named to his third straight All-Star team, but not as a starter, and Kevin asks if Luka will use that and Reggie Miller's commentary as motivation. Also, we vote whether the Mavs will make a major move at the trade deadline. [38:53] Evan talks about his trips to Lubbock and Austin to write about Chris Beard returning to his former place of employment and why Tech fans have a problem with UT.

McCarthy's Cowboys future, Kidd's present with the Mavs and MLB's ugly labor problems

Tue, 25 Jan 2022 20:20:32 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Callie Caplan, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss the biggest questions about the Cowboys, [4:15] which is Mike McCarthy's future: Should he come back, and will he? Only one of the podcasters believes he won't be back. Hint: It's not Kevin, David or Callie. [25:39] Callie notes the huge improvement for the Mavs' defense in January, and Kevin credits Kidd for getting his players to buy in to such a difficult request. Callie says a lighter mood and the staff's efforts to give Kristaps Porzingis more post-up options has improved the dynamic between KP and Luka Doncic. Last but not least, [41:35] Evan rants about the looming shutdown in baseball.

Wed, 19 Jan 2022 02:46:28 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Callie Caplan, Evan Grant and David Moore dissect the disappointing end of yet another Cowboys' season, [00:40] this one more unexpected than most. Evan asks what the Cowboys should do, and David says the first order of business is to fix the offensive line. Kevin says Dak Prescott proved he's not capable of carrying the team, so it's up to the organization to make it more Dak-friendly. They also discuss Mike McCarthy's future and how it's influenced by Jerry Jones' history with coaches. [22:13] Callie talks about Luka Doncic's upgraded play recently. David wonders if Atlanta's John Collins can make enough difference in a trade, and Kevin wonders if the Mavs can afford to burn another season of Luka's greatness, if we can call it that.

Dak's playoff QB ranking, expanding the CFP and are the Rangers Jung at heart?

Tue, 11 Jan 2022 19:36:20 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore look at the [5:45] Cowboys' playoff matchup with the 49ers this week and discuss what could keep them from advancing. David agrees with the consensus that Dak Prescott is the fourth-best QB on the NFC side of the bracket, but he asserts that the playoffs are where reputations are made, and Dak can help his cause as well as the Cowboys'. [26:33] Evan rejoices in his beloved Georgia's win over Alabama. Kevin says expanding the playoffs to 12 teams won't change the final outcome much, but it'll make it more fun for everyone and once in a blue moon produce a Hoosiers-like Cinderella. [39:39] And Evan tells us why Josh Jung just might crash the Rangers' opening day, whenever that might be.

Same ol' Cowboys, new-look Mavs and can Georgia ever beat Alabama?

Tue, 04 Jan 2022 20:11:24 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Callie Caplan, David Moore and Evan Grant discuss the [2:19] Cowboys' wildly erratic season and how that track record bodes for the possibility of breaking their 25-year championship game drought. David contends this is the Cowboys' best staff in years, and Evan says that should enable them to beat Arizona in a potential first-round rematch. Kevin and Callie say not so fast. [19:55] Callie outlines what the success of the Mavs' new roster means immediately and in the weeks leading up to the trade deadline. [ 33:00] Evan tells us why his beloved Georgia Bulldogs should beat Alabama for a change, and Kevin says that if star freshman quarterback Caleb Williams follows Lincoln Riley to USC, Oklahoma fans will seize Los Angeles.

Predicting the Cowboys, Mavs and Rangers for '22

Tue, 28 Dec 2021 16:08:07 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore make their predictions for the rest of the Cowboys' and Mavs' seasons as well as provide a glimpse of what's to come next season. David says it'll be hard to build on the Cowboys' success because of free agency and cap concerns, meaning they'd better win it all now. Can the Cowboys do that? Tune in to find out. Also, the crew sees improvement for the Rangers, but David predicts it might come with just 40 wins. The pandemic will continue to wreak havoc on sports in general, and, Kevin says, the Mavs will be the same ol', same ol'. Might even lead to a breakup.

Cowboys playoff seeding, SOC greatness and hats off to Todd Dodge

Tue, 21 Dec 2021 20:36:31 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore hash out the Cowboys' potential playoff seedings [2:20] and what a No. 1 or 2 seed could mean for their Super Bowl chances. Evan wonders if any unit is playing as well as the Cowboys’ defense [7:04]. David says the Cowboys have flipped the script this season [14:43], but Dak Prescott still needs to figure out a way to beat what defenses have done to adjust to his strengths. Evan gives a shoutout to South Oak Cliff [22:25], which won Dallas ISD's first state football title in 63 years. Kevin and Evan note that this is what happens when you afford inner-city schools some of the same opportunities routinely given suburban schools. And Kevin notes the retirement of Todd Dodge [28:21], the former Southlake Carroll coach, who retired after winning his third straight state title at Austin Westlake and seventh overall.

Dak needs to be fixed, the Rangers need a hitter and should Georgia just concede to Alabama?

Tue, 14 Dec 2021 20:07:00 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant discuss the evolution of the Cowboys' defense and whether it's enough to carry the team if Dak Prescott doesn't revert to his former self [2:55]. The Rangers have made big signings, but they still need another hitter in the outfield, where nothing's given [17:31]. Kevin reveals his Heisman vote [27:17], then asks Evan if, given Georgia's problems beating Alabama, maybe they should just meet at midfield if they both make the finals, shake hands and call it a day?

Cowboys play defense, Mavs don't, Rangers lineup and the CFP

Tue, 07 Dec 2021 19:05:13 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore, Evan Grant and Callie Caplan meet to solve local sports. Biggest takeaway from the Cowboys' win over the Saints [2:35] besides a 'W,' Kevin says, was the play of DeMarcus Lawrence in his first game back. David wonders how good this defense could be with the addition of Randy Gregory, who may play against Washington this week. Callie tells us [13:25] that Jason Kidd has remained on a fairly even keel despite the Mavs' uneven start, but change will have to come at the trade deadline. Evan gives his late-summer lineup for the Rangers [278:11]. Kevin and Evan discuss the CFP [34:19], why they're glad Notre Dame didn't make it and why Oklahoma fans should be glad Lincoln Riley left for USC.

Is the defense about to take over? And what exactly is going on with Dak Prescott's throws: Meanwhile, the Rangers spent $500 million over a long weekend on two middle infielders [16:20]. Kevin asks if they overpaid while Evan asks if that matters. And finally [24:58] the guys discuss the significance of Lincoln Riley bolting OU for USC while idealistic Evan asks: Could Sonny Dykes have handled his departure from SMU in a better way.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant discuss the Cowboys' flop in Kansas City [1:53] and how they won't get another chance to measure their postseason potential until January. Evan and Kevin make their cases for the best free agent shortstops for the Rangers [17:35]. Kevin argues that TCU is a better job than SMU or Texas Tech and how that came to pass [28:32], which explains why Sonny Dykes is leaving the Hilltop for Fort Worth. The Mavs are feeling Luka Doncic's absence, but it's not a total loss. David discusses how Kristaps Porzingis has played some of his best basketball since he was in New York [37:06]. The key, Kevin says, is whether he can continue to play that way once Luka is back in the lineup. Happy Thanksgiving, everybody!

Tue, 16 Nov 2021 19:41:52 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss the Cowboys' rebound from their worst performance of the year to their best and what it means going into their toughest stretch of the season, with three games in 12 days against Kansas City, Las Vegas and New Orleans [1:56]. David says he wants to see how the Cowboys react to situations going forward. Kevin talks about college job openings, including the possibility that Sonny Dykes could move from SMU to TCU, and all three Insiders pile on Steve Sarkisian and Texas [19:01]. The Mavs' big win over Denver may have come at the cost of Luka Doncic, but David wonders if that might facilitate more assertiveness from Kristaps Porzingis [30:40]. And Evan outlines the free agent market for the Rangers [36:32].

Aberration or blueprint for Cowboys, Kershaw for the Rangers and is Luka happy?

Tue, 09 Nov 2021 18:40:06 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant are joined by Callie Caplan, who covers the Mavs for the News, to discuss a "catastrophic" Cowboys loss, as Kevin calls it. But catastrophic only if it lingers [1:56]. Evan makes the case that, given what happened in the rest of the NFC over the weekend, it wasn't all that bad. Callie gets us up-to-speed on how Luka Doncic is adjusting to Jason Kidd's demands and the chemistry of the Mavs in the Kidd era [17:28]. David describes how Luka is different from most young superstars. Evan explains why the Rangers can't go after most big-time free agents until after labor issues are settled, but they can and should sign Clayton Kershaw [29:33]. And Kevin says Kirby Hocutt, Texas Tech's AD, is sticking his neck out by hiring Joey McGuire to be his football coach [36:53].

Is Luka lost? Should the Cowboys hold off another week on bringing Dak back? And it's time to play Coaching Carousel!

Tue, 02 Nov 2021 22:37:21 -0000

With Kevin Sherrington missing in action, SportsDay Insider’s Evan Grant and David Moore welcome in Mavs Insider Callie Caplan to discuss Luka Doncic's slow start to the season, the travails of yet another Kristaps Porzingis injury and adjusting to the Jason Kidd style of play.

Then, Evan and David debate whether the Cowboys should play Dak Prescott this week or if they should play with house money, give Dak another week to rest and let Cooper Rush run the offense against Denver since the season is quickly becoming about playoff seeding rather than worrying about winning the NFC East. Evan is worried about the Cowboys' penalty problems; David explains controlled aggression.

Then they toss around whether TCU dropped the football on the decision to part ways with Gary Patterson or if getting out ahead of Texas Tech in the coaching search is just a necessary evil of the business these days. All of which brings us back to: SMU's Sonny Dykes.

And, finally, Evan says: Stop being grumpy old men about the World Series. It is what it is and it's still full of drama and tension. Appreciate the Braves' resilience all year and the Astros' ability to win in the face of being the designated national villains.

The guys analyze the Mavs' horrific start in a loss to the Hawks [16:30]. David says Jason Kidd needs to find a balance between stressing defense and rebounding and making sure the offense still works. On the day of the first game of the World Series [26:34], Kevin pins his stunted growth on growing up an Astros fan and ranks the favorites to succeed Matt Wells at Tech and why it's so important for Kirby Hocutt to get it right.

Tue, 19 Oct 2021 19:47:21 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant discuss the wisdom in letting Dak Prescott rest his injured calf for a couple weeks instead of rushing him back. Kevin gives two reasons why Jason Kidd is now the Mavs' coach, and how that affects the team's dynamics going forward. On the college coaching roundtable, the guys talk about the development at Washington State, where the head coach and four assistants were fired for refusing the COVID vaccine; Evan tells us why LSU is a better job than Texas A&M; and David skewers Evan for saying Steve Sarkisian is already done at Texas.

Getting a jump on next week, Evan asks Kevin when was the last time another game in this state (Alabama-A&M) trumped Texas-OU? Nothing, Kevin says, trumps a corn dog at the State Fair.

Tue, 14 Sep 2021 18:47:21 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant break down the Cowboys' opening loss to Tampa Bay and whether they can afford another road loss to the Chargers if they want to be taken seriously as a Super Bowl contender [2:02]. David says it's not a "must-win," but it's close. Evan gives us four shortstops the Rangers should pursue in free agency, and Kevin says it reminds him of money-whipping Alex Rodriguez [16:22]. The difference, Evan says: "A-Rod was reprehensible." And Kevin surprises Evan with the news that Kellen Mond is no longer the Aggies' quarterback.

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant discuss NFL cuts and Cooper Rush winning the backup QB job over Garrett Gilbert and Ben "Uncle Rico" DiNucci, who couldn't throw the ball over that mountain over there after all [3:03].

Kevin offers a mea culpa for saying last week that Taylor Hearn didn't look like a starter for the Rangers [17:09], and Evan lectures on the importance of college scheduling [27:30].

Dak's out, the Rangers down, the Aggies up and hatch chili peppers are in

Tue, 17 Aug 2021 22:13:29 -0000

The News’ Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant cover a wide range of topics in this week's podcast, highlighted by the fact that rest for Dak Prescott's bum shoulder is bad news for the Cowboys' chances against Tampa Bay in the season opener [8:52]. Still, it's the thing to do. Evan and Kevin debate whether the best news for the Rangers [18:38] is the development of a trio of young pitchers, or is it the fact that the season is more than two-thirds over? Texas A&M came in sixth in the AP preseason poll [26:09] and Jimbo Fisher 34th in ESPN's top 100 college football coaches of the last half-century. Kevin says that, and Lincoln Riley's dominance in Oklahoma, are bad omens for Texas' Steve Sarkisian. And, in light of Evan's libelous assault, David defends the honor of the venerable hatch chili pepper. Bon appetit.

Tue, 03 Aug 2021 20:20:40 -0000

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant each give the Big 12 schools abandoned by Texas and Oklahoma a future, whether through expansion or in other conferences [4:19]. New GM Nico Harrison couldn't deliver the Mavs' their top free agent target, Kyle Lowry, so the onus is on Jason Kidd to make sure Kristaps Porzingis is a legitimate second option [16:80].

Tue, 22 Jun 2021 20:00:00 -0000

In our SportsDay Insider podcast this week, Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant decide that Mark Cuban's ego is more problematic than Jerry Jones', and may scare off a strong GM candidate [4:07]. They also discuss the impact made by Carl Nassib [15:55], the first active NFL player to say he's gay, as well as an essay by former Rangers beat writer Kat O’Brien [22:25], who revealed that she was raped by an MLB player in 2002. Evan relates how Kyle Gibson feels about being frisked [27:58], whether Adolis Garcia is the new Danny Santana [34:59] and his latest adventures at Buc-ee's.

SportsDay Insider: Kiner-Falefa's All-Star snub, the Mavs' Luka dilemma and did the Cowboys pick the right CB after all?

Tue, 15 Jun 2021 20:00:00 -0000

Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant consider whether Isiah Kiner-Falefa will use his 11th-place ranking in the All-Star voting as more motivation and what he'd think about a move to second base [4:00]. Also, can the Mavs win if Luka Doncic does a little less? He needs help, but it's probably not coming from the outside [17:30]. And in the bonus rookie camp, Nahshon Wright gets another chance to prove that the Cowboys didn't overrate him in the draft [26:55]. Speaking of overrated, that's what Evan thinks of Buc-ee's.

Luka's pain in the neck, Dak's bum ankle and the Rangers aren't feeling so hot, either.

Writers Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant take a look at the Mavs' playoff chances and how they impact Rick Carlisle's future (4:47).

SportsDay Insider: Is Adolis Garcia the Rangers' answer at long last in centerfield, and can Kristaps Porzingis do what's best for the Mavs in the playoffs?

Tue, 11 May 2021 21:49:52 -0000

Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore discuss the Rangers’ gift from the Cardinals in the form of Adolis Garcia [8:41], and Evan reveals the work Garcia puts in to make his hitting approach sustainable. In their potpourri segment [16:35], David says the downside to the Mavs’ season is that they still haven’t determined Kristaps Porzingis’ fit in this offense. The Stars' failure to make the playoffs after a Stanley Cup Finals season will probably cost Rick Bowness, and the Nelson benefits from the move to McKinney's Craig Ranch, where Kevin says the locals will do a better job than Dallas did at Trinity Forest. And, last but not least [29:33], David breaks down how first-round pick Micah Parsons fits in the Cowboys’ crowded linebacker room and which rookies need to make an impact.

SportsDay Insider: The Cowboys' mistakes at linebacker led them to double down in the draft; Why the Mavs can't beat bad teams

Tue, 04 May 2021 21:40:21 -0000

Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore dive into the Cowboys’ draft (04:21), with David dropping that the Cowboys were determined to come out of the first round with Micah Parsons, Patrick Surtain II or Jaycee Horn. And that made impossible a trade further down the board than 12. Evan likes the fact that Joey Gallo has nearly doubled his extra-base hit output on Sunday and Monday (19:05), but he’s still not sold that Gallo’s back. He's high on Isiah Kiner-Falefa and Nick Solak, though. So much so that he's thinking the Rangers may not need a certain All-Star shortstop out of Irving after all. And Kevin thinks it’s a good thing the Mavs (27:18) get to play good teams this week, because the Mavs are no good against bad ones. Also, this breaking news: Evan is no good around the house (34:00). Find more ‘Dallas Morning News’ audio and a special membership offer for listeners at dallasnews.com/listen.

SportsDay Insider: Risky Cowboy gambles in the second round, why no Ranger wants to run into Adolis, and Kim Mulkey leaves Baylor to go home. Sort of.

Tue, 27 Apr 2021 18:23:00 -0000

Welcome to our new weekly sports report from columnists Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore. After dissing the Oscars — Kevin loves Gary Oldman, but Mank is as wooden as Joey Gallo’s bats — they discuss Sean Lee’s career (4:50) and how his selection in 2010 set a pattern of second-round gambles. David says they have to fix the defense, but the guys are unanimous (15:40) that if Florida tight end Kyle Pitts is available at 10, they should take a true difference-maker, as Evan calls him. One of the only Rangers making a difference is Adolis Garcia (22:52), yet the guys nitpick him. Kevin wonders if he's communicating with the other outfielders, and Evan critiques his cross-over step. Finally, (31:08) Evan and Kevin discuss whether going back to LSU is really going home for Kim Mulkey and what it means for Baylor.

From a long-term perspective, starting pitcher Dane Dunning is giving Texas some hope. We're also one week closer to the NFL draft, so Kevin and David discuss whether the Cowboys would move down from their No. 10 slot in the first round, Patrick Surtain II vs. Jaycee Horn and more.

Football is now in full-time offseason mode.

A breakdown:

[3:33] — A quick Bucs-Chiefs recap and takeaways from the Super Bowl.
[9:55] — How far away are the Cowboys from stacking up to Tampa Bay and Kansas City? What areas does Dallas need to improve in?
[18:02] — ... Should we even be stacking the Cowboys up to Super Bowl participants? Maybe it's time we dial things back as far as evaluating Dallas' outlook for next season. Plus, a Super Bowl participant who the Cowboys could sign on defense and what they need to do in the NFL draft.
[33:20] — The Texas Rangers traded Elvis Andrus for Khris Davis. And it's a move Evan says the club *needed* to make. What does this mean for the club moving forward in 2021 — and beyond?
[43:47] — The Mavericks are... bouncing back? Kind of? A review of the Mavs' recent results and, in particular, the play of Porzingis, who's shown flashes of his Bubble self.
[56:57] — Jordan Spieth seemed to put everything together at the Phoenix Open last week. Then Sunday happened. Still, Kevin calls Spieth's top-five finish at the PGA Tour event "a step forward."

Dallas underlined its status as a likely title contender with an inspired second half on the road against the NBA-leading Lakers, who had lost only once in 18 games since their season opener.

Can Dallas win the East with a 9-7 record?

Tue, 03 Dec 2019 18:25:44 -0000

In this episode of Ballzy, hosts Evan Grant, David Moore and Kevin Sherrington talk about the Dallas Cowboys' loss to the Bills and Jason Garrett.
Can Dallas win the East with a 9-7 record? Actually, that is automatic as long as they beat Philadelphia. Can the Cowboys win it at 9-7 while losing to the Eagles? Answer again is yes as long as the Eagles stumble once more against the Giants or Redskins.

Dallas might even find itself with an 8-8 record hosting 13-3 San Francisco or Seattle. Such is its lack of competition in the NFC East this year. But does any of this foster belief in owner Jerry Jones’ scenario in which fairy tales come true and Garrett leads this team to a Super Bowl?

Should the Rangers sign Anthony Rendon in free agency?

Tue, 12 Nov 2019 21:50:58 -0000

In this edition of The Rangers Ballzy, hosts Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and David Moore talk about the upcoming season and free agency.

That’s the difference between the Rangers’ approach to free agency this year and recent winters past: They are at least willing to play at the top of a free agent market heavy on starting pitching and third basemen. And wouldn’t you just know it, those happen to be their two primary needs.

On Monday, by saying the Rangers were prepared to investigate the top of the market, Jon Daniels seemed to imply an increase of $30 million or more would not be out of the question. It would take as much to land one of the premier free agents.

Do the Dallas Cowboys need Ezekiel Elliott to win a Superbowl?

Tue, 30 Jul 2019 16:32:36 -0000

The Dallas Morning News SportsDay writers discuss Ezekiel Elliott's contact and the 2019 Cowboys Camp. Cowboys training camp is underway in Oxnard. Ezekiel Elliott is still not present. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones briefly addressed the situation on Sunday night. "You don't have to have a rushing champion to win a Super Bowl," Jones said in a one-on-one interview with CBS 11 Sports.
Jones has previous experience in this department. In the 1992 season, Emmitt Smith became the first-ever rushing champion to be a member of a championship team as the Cowboys defeated the Buffalo Bills in Super Bowl XXVII.

Is Mike Minor most likely to be traded?

Tue, 30 Jul 2019 15:49:54 -0000

The Dallas Morning News SportsDay writers discuss the 2019 MLB trade deadline. So far, it has only been a mild "annoyance" to Mike Minor, whose name shows up most often as the Ranger Most Likely To Be Traded. With a little more than 72 hours to go before the deadline, Minor, on Sunday, acknowledged being a little miffed that his pitching schedule had been moved back just in case a trade came up. He also confessed this -- and stop the presses! -- he didn't particularly enjoy discussing trade rumors with the media. Or anybody else, for that matter.

Should the Dallas Cowboys pay Ezekiel Elliott

Tue, 23 Jul 2019 17:10:04 -0000

The Dallas Morning News SportsDay writers discuss Ezekiel Elliott's contact and the 2019 Cowboys Camp. History tells us that even if Zeke holds out, it's not necessarily the end of the world, though you could probably see it from there. Depends, of course, on how long Zeke sits and how well the Cowboys play without him. For instance, Emmitt Smith held out two games in 1993 and the Cowboys, with rookie Derrick Lassic in Emmitt's place, lost both. After the second loss, Charles Haley, never one to take disappointment lightly, slammed a locker room wall and screamed, "We can't win with this rookie running back!"

Should the Rangers trade Mike Minor?

Tue, 16 Jul 2019 15:42:43 -0000

The Dallas Morning News SportsDay writers talk about Mike Minor trade talks.Even with two sub-par performances bookended around the All-Star Break, Minor is the Rangers' biggest trade chip. Factor in his season-long performance with an affordable salary (about $3 million for the remainder of this season and $9.8 million for 2020) makes him perhaps the most attractive starting pitching option on the market - if he's on the market. If the Rangers feel they still need to take big steps to close the gaps on contenders for 2020 and beyond, trading Minor would represent the best route to restocking the upper levels of the farm system.

The NFL draft is over. What's next for the Cowboys?

In this edition of the Cowboys Ballzy podcast, host Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant chat about the 2019 NFL Draft and the future of the Dallas Cowboys.

In a perfect world, every Dallas Cowboys draft pick would enter the NFL and provide value commensurate with their draft slot, but that rarely (if ever) happens.

Not all draft picks are created equal. In theory, the best players are selected first, meaning the expected value added by a first-round pick should exceed that of a second-round pick and so on. So the expectations of each prospect are based upon where they are selected.

In this edition of the Cowboys Ballzy podcast, host Kevin Sherrington, David Moore and Evan Grant chat about the future of the Texas Rangers,

The state of the Rangers’ player-development system was driven home last week.

The lower levels of the system are productive, but there is nothing close to being ready to help the major-league team.

When the Rangers needed a starter at Seattle on Thursday, they went with left-hander Taylor Hearn, the No. 5 prospect in the Dallas Morning News’ rankings. Hearn, with only four starts at Triple-A Nashville, did not get out of the first inning and will miss about three weeks because of elbow inflammation.

The Stars lost to St. Louis 4-3 on Monday night in Game 3 of their second-round series, giving the Blues a 2-1 series lead after the teams split a pair of games in Missouri last week. It's the same situation Dallas faced in the first round against the Predators, and they followed up a Game 3 loss with three straight wins to eliminate Nashville.

If they can find a way to beat Colin McHugh on Sunday, it will give them a 4-2 series lead. They have outscored Houston 22-17 in the first five games.

Europe's Michael Jordan: How Dirk Nowitzki's talents transcended an ocean, opened doors for others

Tue, 16 Apr 2019 17:49:05 -0000

He didn't want it to be this way, but Dirk Nowitzki's 21st NBA season quickly evolved into a long, heartfelt public goodbye.

Tributes poured in, as did thoughtful opinions about Nowitzki's legacy. His career was widely eulogized, often in past tense. Reporters and fans live-tweeted the funeral, even though, clearly, Nowitzki's career wasn't yet dead.

True to his personality, Nowitzki not only never complained, but he often spoke during his career's wake, usually with humor.

Elvis Andrus is no Dirk Nowitzki, but a full career with the Rangers could make him just as celebrated

Tue, 16 Apr 2019 17:49:01 -0000

Dirk Nowitzki is retired now. Almost a full week. Long live Dirk.

But it's sports and so the discussion moves quickly. A week ago, it was: Dirk can never be replaced as a Dallas sports icon. Now: Is there anybody who might come close?

Elvis Andrus might be as good an answer as anybody.

Andrus is off to a blazing start in his 11th season with the Rangers and quickly closing in on 1,500 games with the franchise. Over the last week, as he watched the tributes to Nowitzki, it didn't go unnoticed that he could one day lay claim to having played more games for a North Texas-based franchise than anybody else.

Why do the Rangers have such a hard time hitting away from Globe Life Park?

Tue, 09 Apr 2019 16:39:38 -0000

In this edition of the Rangers Ballzy podcast, host Kevin Sherrington, David Moore chat with Evan Grant about why the Rangers seem to have a hard time winning away

In less than a year, when they are safely ensconced in their retractable roof stadium, the Rangers are going to have to find ways to maximize the usage of their old park to sustain its viability.

Stay with me here, but here's an idea:

Prop that bad boy up on a couple of flatbeds and drag it around the country behind them.

Because this is a team that has, for at least the last four years, seemed to lose any offensive identity when it loses sight of its home park. And, if the first road series of the 2019 season is any indication, the trend is going to continue.

Adrian Sampson, whose day begin with an hour-long wait to get through security at the Nashville airport, gave the Rangers six innings of four-hit, one-run baseball against Houston. He saved the bullpen in relief of Drew Smyly. He also took the loss in a 2-1 defeat thanks to a double that left the bat at 60 mph. And, as an added bonus, he might just get a return trip to Triple-A Nashville in time to make a scheduled start Saturday.

Cowboys extend suspended DE Randy Gregory through 2020

Tue, 02 Apr 2019 17:34:21 -0000

In this edition of the Rangers Ballzy podcast, host Kevin Sherrington, David Moore chat with Evan Grant about Randy Gregory, and the future of the Dallas Cowboys.

The Cowboys have extended Gregory's contract through 2020, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported Tuesday morning. Gregory, 26, was set to enter the final year of his rookie contract.

In February, Gregory was suspended indefinitely for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy, his fourth suspension since joining the Cowboys as a second-round draft pick in 2015. Despite another setback, the Cowboys see a player putting in great effort to battle for his health and sobriety, so there are no plans to turn their backs on him.

This time he got beat out by Hunter Pence and an eight-man bullpen. Believe it or not, this constitutes progress.

Gallo has two bunt hits in his four-year major-league career, with both coming last season. Gallo said it is likely he will use the bunt more often this season to counter the shifts he faces as a left-handed pull hitter.
