Today’s word of the day is ‘confidence’ as in Jerry Jones as in the Dallas Cowboys as in Brian Schottenheimer as in collapse. The Cowboys blew a double-digit lead at home to the Arizona Cardinals.

Instead he was sent to the Dodgers. The Athletic reports that the Tigers had a deal in place and then ghosted the Brewers! (31:30) Jeffery Simmons was traded to the Chicago Bears on Thursday.
