Before the 2025 season went sideways for the Dallas Cowboys, there was a point where Dak Prescott was on the fringes of our MVP race. As he came back from injury for a historic campaign, the Comeback Player of the Year was also floated for the 32-year-old. He never got the award, and the Cowboys […]

Is Junior Caminero getting pitched around because neither Jonathan Aranda nor Yandy Diaz are hitting behind him in the lineup to “protect” him? How much influence does Caminero have on the number of pitches the batter ahead of him sees in the zone? Inspired by an article examining the statistical significance of lineup protection, I […]
The Dallas Cowboys have themselves a good running back as the Javonte Williams experiment produced positive results, prompting the front office to reward him with a three-year, $24 million deal. Congrats, J-Dub. Well deserved. But every backfield Batman needs a Robin, and the Cowboys are currently without their boy wonder as their running back room […]
Good morning. Shawn McFarland writes about what we learned regarding the Texas Rangers over the last week where Ezequiel Duran has stepped up in a big way. Kennedi Landry writes that if Jordan Montgomery and/or Cody Bradford can make it back this summer, dealing from the rotation might be Texas’ best option at the trade […]
Shavon Revel feels ‘100 percent’ and looking to grow under Christian Parker – Tommy Yarrish, DallasCowboys.com Shavon Revel’s draft pedigree paired with new DC Christian Parker’s experience developing talented draft prospects could pay off in a big way for the Cowboys secondary in 2026. “It’s very beneficial,” Revel said of being healthy during the offseason.

For more than a decade, Dirk Nowitzki provided the Dallas Mavericks with a high floor when it came to wins and losses. Nowitzki was drafted by the Milwaukee Bucks ninth overall and immediately traded to Dallas for Robert “Tractor” Traylor. For the next decade and a half, the Mavericks wouldn’t select higher than 12th in […]
The Trae Young-Anthony Davis Duo in D.C. might be over before it begins. There's a lot of talk this offseason that AD may be on the move without having played a single game for the Washington Wizards. Davis was acquired in a trade deadline deal from the Dallas Mavericks, but the 33-year-old sat out the rest of the year due to injury (I know, you're shocked). He managed to play just 20 games this past season, all told. But with career averages of 24 points per game, 10.7 boards and 2.3 bl...

The Rangers have traded Richie Martin Jr. to the Rockies, according to the infielder’s transaction log on MLB.com. He has been assigned to Triple-A Albuquerque. There’s no word on what Colorado is sending Texas in return, although it’s likely cash considerations. Martin, now 31, was the Athletics’ first-round pick in the 2015 draft. Three years […]
OKC Thunder point guard Ajay Mitchell has drawn strong comparisons to superstar Jalen Brunson, and, if he follows the same career path, could become very expensive.
One of the biggest surprises from a disappointing 2025 season was seeing second-year wide receiver Ryan Flournoy take on a bigger role in the Cowboys offense.

The Knicks are captivating New York, but Mike Francesa doesn’t believe the New York media is returning the favor by doing the Knicks much justice. New York is divided when it comes to the Jets and Giants, they’re split on the Mets and Yankees, and even the Rangers and Islanders. The Brooklyn Nets have their…
Aroldis Chapman is no stranger to being traded midseason. His move to the Chicago Cubs in 2016 from the NY Yankees led to the first World Series championship on the North Side of Chicago in 108 years. His trade to the Texas Rangers in July of 2023 helped the Rangers to their first-ever World Series win. Which team will be the next to bring in the flamethrower to help lead them to the ultimate prize? According to insider Bob Nightengale of USA Today , a trade will happen. It's only ...

Thirteen Years Ago The Blue Jays and Rangers played 18 innings; best of all, the good guys won. I miss these kinds of games. It was one of those games that felt like it would never end. Early on, we scored three runs in the third inning. Edwin Encarnacion singled. Adam Lind walked, moving Edwin […]

Taken by themselves, the Cowboys roster numbers currently don’t mean all that much.

Dereck Lively II's injuries have the Dallas Mavericks stuck in a corner, as it would be unwise to sign him to an extension since they don't know if he can stay healthy. On the other hand, they can't trade him, either, since his value is likely low.
When I first profiled Karim Lopez back in October, I mentioned him as a polarizing international prospect worth keeping an eye on. Now, with rumors circulating that new Mavericks President Masai Ujiri could view Lopez as a prototypical Dallas target, it’s worth revisiting my thoughts on a prospect I have followed for almost three years.
