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.
Each week, Evan and John will be joined by at least one guest from the Rangers’ past or present. They’ll dive into some historical items, talk about the state of the current team and, most importantly, try to have a little fun.
John and Evan once again find themselves breaking down the lack of offense in key moments before turning to the more pleasant topic of Nathan Eovaldi’s Cy Young candidacy. 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 2010-2013 Rangers went into games knowing they were going to beat opponents and his role in that and then it goes off in all kinds of directions.
John and Evan review the finalists for the Rangers Best Regular Season Moment in club history and how you can win a nice prize package for voting in the finals.
