How am I supposed to feel? On one hand, we hadn’t won a conf game in 2 years so finishing this season at 9-3/8-4 is a massive improvement and should be celebrated. On the other hand, no team should lose if they put up 49 with NFL talent at QB, RB, OL, and WR. What’s the answer?
Everyone had extremely high hopes coming into this season — me included — but let’s not lose sight of the future. We can do great things this year! Let’s continue to support this team, just like we have the past two years (and beyond).
Real question is what happens when Leiter comes back?
Don’t hate having an 8/9 of Leiter/Latz (who both can get you more than 3 outs if needed) in the playoffs.
Skip Schumaker said Jordan Montgomery and Cal Quantrill will both go to the bullpen, though exact roles are TBD
The Rangers will go with a five-man rotation: deGrom, Eovaldi, Gore, Rocker, Bradford
I don’t have the data to back this up, but I feel like Yordan Alvarez homers against the Rangers like every third at-bat. @JaredSandler thoughts and/or data points?
The thing that people are missing is that the technical population middle of Dallas is Bush/Tollway. This moves right next to that. 80% of season ticket holders live in Dallas/Collin counties. They are going where their folks are. Good move.
The Arizona Coyotes basically died because it’s impossible to get fans to drive 40+ minutes a night for a 41-game season the way fans will suck up driving for 8 NFL games.
Somewhat different situation, but moving this far — even within the market — is very risky
There’s a lot of discourse on this app about TSA. I flew out of DFW (Dallas) yesterday, and CLT (Charlotte) today and both times it took less than three minutes. I hope this adds comfort to other passengers nervous about getting to their airport early.
So the final trade ends up being
Other Teams: Luka, Maxi, Morris, DLo, Hardy, Anthony Davis
for
Mavericks: Middleton, AJ Johnson, Branham, Badgley, Christie, 3 FRP and 3 SRP + conspiracy on Cooper Flagg
Malpractice doesn’t cover what Nico Harrison did
