July 19, 2021
The GIST: Another weekend, another sweep of the Rangers. Hey, at least Cowboys training camp starts this week. Is it September yet?

⚾️Rangers: The Rangers looked like they were still on vacation in their first series after the All-Star break, as the Toronto Blue Jays outscored Texas 25–2 in three games (including two shutouts). Making matters worse, the Rangers will face the Detroit Tigers — who are fresh off a three-game sweep of their own — today at 7:10 p.m. ET/6:10 p.m. CT. Sheesh.
- More bad news: although designated hitter Joey Gallo gave us some hope that he might stick around, the MLB trade deadline is looming and a mass exodus of Rangers’ talent is almost inevitable. Pain.
🏈Cowboys: The ’Boys don’t kick off training camp until Wednesday, but linebacker Micah Parsons already has our MVP vote. The No. 12 2021 draft pick made good on his pre-draft promise and purchased a house for his mother in the Dallas area. We’re not crying, you’re crying.
