Welcome to SportsDay Rangers!

Long-time Dallas Morning News Texas Rangers beat writer Evan Grant has teamed up with Rangers senior advisor and team historian John Blake for a new podcast. Our two hosts bring nearly 70 years of combined experience covering the Rangers to the pod.

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 tightly-knit.
