Rangers at the midpoint of spring training Mar 11, 2026

Show notes

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant team up from Surprise for an all-Rangers, all-the-time podcast. [3:45] Who's the star of camp this spring? What's going on with Josh Jung? What does the back end of the rotation look like? If the Rangers get off to a bad start, will Chris Young conduct a fire sale? And how's the new ABS challenge system working out so far? All this and more in a spring training special.

SportsDay Rangers, Episode 28: The one with Mark DeRosa Mar 06, 2026

Show notes

Just as Team USA is about to start its quest for the World Baseball Classic title, manager Mark DeRosa, a Ranger in 2005-06, joins John and Evan to discuss his team's chances, his fervor for putting together the roster and even the possibility of Wyatt Langford joining the roster at some point in the tournament. But first, John and Evan run through the various injuries impacting the Rangers in spring training and mull the pitching situation. Finally, the guys end their historic tour of Rangers spring training sites with reminiscing over the surprise move to Surprise. What once was a dusty little desert ghost town sure has grown up, but the facility has remained leading edge.

Cowboys draft talk and Rangers at mid-spring Mar 04, 2026

Show notes

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Joe Hoyt talk [00:12] about Joe’s mock draft 2.0 and what it portends for the Cowboys with the 12th pick. Joe tells us what he learned at the combine and how that affected his picks since his first mock draft. Should Jerry Jones trade up? Down? Whatever he does, they need two impact players on Day 1. [35:15] Evan tells us where the Rangers are at the mid-point of spring training. Still a lot to be determined, particularly in the bullpen and on the bench, but, except for the back of the rotation, everything else seems set.

SportsDay Rangers, Episode 27: The one with Bengie Gil Feb 27, 2026

Show notes

After a breakdown of the first week of exhibitions, Team Mexico's manager for the WBC and former Ranger Benji Gil joins the guys to talk about his club, which includes Rangers outfielder Alejandro Osuna and Robert Garcia. Benji was also Osuna's manager in winter ball and raves about him. Plus, what Osuna can learn from two weeks around Randy Arozarena, Jarren Duran and Alek Thomas. Benji discusses the potential magnitude of Team Mexico winning the tournament. And, of course, John has to ask him about twice losing his job to Kevin Elster. Finally, the guys reminisce about training in Port Charlotte, Fla., and the time the racing pests took an unexpected tumble.

Finding defense for Cowboys and a make-or-break year for a Ranger Feb 26, 2026

Show notes

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Joe Hoyt analyze the Cowboys' signing of Javonte Williams and what's next for George Pickens. Joe also tells us how many new defensive starters he thinks Christian Parker needs. (Hint: It's a lot). How many can they get in the draft? Should they trade up or down? The guys discuss it all. Evan tells us that Josh Jung is off to a nice start in camp, and he needs it. This is a pivotal year for Jung. And if Wyatt Langford posts a big year, the Rangers will pay for it. More than they'd like, probably.

Rolling out the Rangers roundtable Feb 18, 2026

Show notes

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Shawn McFarland talk all Rangers, all the time, in a podcast that covers everything from how to pronounce "Schumaker" to Kip Fagg's draft record. Skip Schumaker's oratorical style; Joc Pederson's conditioning; the past dynamic between Corey Seager and Marcus Semien; and a make-or-break year for multiple Rangers, it's all here. Get it while it's hot.

SportsDay Rangers, Episode 26: The one with Doug Melvin Feb 13, 2026

Show notes

John and Evan break down the start of camp (at least before Sebastian Walcott got hurt) before former Rangers GM Doug Melvin joins the show. With this being the 30th anniversary of the Rangers' first playoff team, the fellas will occasionally look back at key members from that team -- and Melvin put together an incredibly durable pitching staff. He also revisits some of the trades he was most proud of and some he wasn't. And then, John regales with tales of the Rangers' first spring training site, a high school baseball field in Pompano Beach, Fla., where Pete Incaviglia once hit a baseball straight through the wooden fence.

Mavs trade and GM, bad Super Bowl and Rangers pitching Feb 11, 2026

Show notes

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Brad Townsend discuss [00:26] exactly who made the trade that wiped away the last of Nico Harrison’s fingerprints on the Mavs. Brad also tells us of the trades the Mavs didn’t make. [22:00] The guys discuss what a bore the Super Bowl was, unless you were DeMarcus Lawrence, the other Cowboys pass rusher who got away. [33:27] And Evan, who’s already in Surprise, tells us about the competition for the last spot in the Rangers’ rotation.

Cowboys contracts, plus spring is here for the Rangers Feb 06, 2026

Show notes

SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington, Evan Grant and Joe Hoyt [2:50] discuss what the Cowboys will do with George Pickens — franchise or sign him long-term — and how much money they’ll free up with restructures. Joe expects Jerry Jones to go all in, or as close as he’ll come, to maximize Dak Prescott’s last years. [26:30] Evan and Kevin analyze how much a pending work stoppage next year will affect the Rangers’ decision-making this season.

SportsDay Rangers, Episode 25: The one with Ross Fenstermaker Feb 06, 2026

Show notes

The Rangers GM joins John and Evan to discuss spring training projects and prospects and also to give more insight into how the Rangers went about the acquisitions the team made during the offseason. Evan does his best to give his own spring preview, but does his best investigative journalism to uncover John's middle name. And finally, the fellas wax poetic about winter caravans gone by and whatever happened to the exploding Winnebago from the 1980s. What a decade the '80s were.
