SportsDay columnist Tim Cowlishaw recently held a chat to talk all things D-FW sports. Here are some highlights:

Question: Fans will nitpick, but all things considered (Fielder's slump, bullpen woes, suspensions, no Yu) aren't the Rangers off to an incredible start this season?

Cowlishaw: Very much. They survived the Odor suspension by bringing up -- what can we call Profar? The best hitter on the team for the last week? Bullpen has been reconstructed successfully. Starting pitching was surprisingly good even before Darvish. But to your Fielder point, we get back to Profar. They can't seriously send him down and hit Fielder (or Moreland for that matter) and say they are putting their best lineup on the field.

Question: Who is the best GM in D-FW?

Cowlishaw: It's Jon Daniels for sure, but Jim Nill is pushing him. Team has to have some real post-season success before that one is close. The others aren't in the hunt.

Question: How would you handle Profar moving forward? Time for Elvis to move on?

Cowlishaw: I'm not getting rid of Profar. He could play for Elvis now but Rangers will have to eat a portion of Elvis' contract to move him. It won't be Hamilton-like, but the world knows he's not a $15 million a year shortstop, even when he's playing at his current level. Even if it means DH-ing Profar and splitting some at-bats between Fielder and Moreland, I'm keeping Profar around. And active.

Question: Which team in D-FW has the brightest future -- Cowboys, Stars, Mavs or Rangers?

Cowlishaw: Current rankings: 1. Rangers. 2. Stars. 3. (Big drop off) Cowboys. 4. Mavs.
