  1. If the Twins are blown away by an offer for Gibson, I'm fine with trading him. But beyond that extending him over the offseason is looking pretty palatable. I wouldn't want to go very long in years. But something like 3/40 would be awesome, but probably too light.
  2. Polanco should have been exempted from the poll; as he didn't really play in the first half. Any production--even average production--will make such soothsayers seem correct.
  3. I think some films are better a signalling "come with us for the ride, and shut off your cynicism"
  4. As soon as I'm challenged to suspend disbelief, my mind goes "challenge accepted" and I can't help but look for all the reasons why I shouldn't suspend disbelief. What's wrong with me? Do others have this problem?
  5. Finally caught the Expanse season finale; just excellent. And it could have acted as the series finale, but I'm very glad it is not.
  6. Another show I've recently been binging is Netflix's Sense 8 (it's only two seasons, but it had me hooked this weekend).
  7. I was thinking that the scene with William indicated that the present story line was taking place further in the future than we realized. As he looks like he just came back from blowing up his hand confronting Delores. I'm just not sure I care any more about the show. I thought BSG played out the worthwhile philosophical underpinnings of human v. robot/cylon/host; and Westworld confuses convolution for depth--the immortality for humans angle had potential, but it got buried in all the brutality and look-at-me cleverness.
  8. Yeah. I was let down. It's like Lost but more convoluted and with less likable characters.
  9. Agreed. It's a bit slow going at first; and the characters take a while for them to warm up to you. But it's just excellent. Great narrative direction, pacing, writing. Complex characters. Complex world that's believable and rich. (I still like BSG better, even with its missteps in the final season).
  10. Do you think his statistical profile to date suggest otherwise? (I.e. that if not for his supposed poor clubhouse presence he'd be worthwhile to the club). These kind of assertions need to be support with facts.
  11. Falvey indicates while there's no timeline, they don't plan it being a longer length of time than spring training.
  12. The Twins have every reason to wait until as close to the deadline as possible. We're still six weeks away from that. This regime has shown it won't hold onto the false hope of compensation, but it also has shown it will add to its chances until the last moment. How they dealt with Jaime Garcia proves both points.
  13. I do too. Nonetheless, if speech like that actually has significant consequences (unlike for our President) maybe we see a lot less of that kind of speech.
  14. Rosanne gets cancelled. Surprised that ABC/Disney reacted so quickly to her tweets this morning.
  15. Weird. Unlike this regime to give up draft capital for cash capital. Maybe they intend on being big spenders this coming off-season? Or they really, really like Villalobos.
  16. I really appreciate the full Top 20 prospect list updates. It helps fill in the injuries, etc. that I may have missed.
  17. I agree. But that said, Paker Posey does play a pretty unlikable character. I still think of her hazing days from Daze and Confused.
  18. Deserved BABIP? Some stats are jumping the shark. I'd like to see how this metric is calculated...
  19. Need to practice hitting homeruns around the leftfield foul pole. Come on. Basic.
  20. I'm not really sure how upset the Twins are, given that Dozier said he felt he didn't need to say something to Sisco even though he was on secondbase and given the chance to talk smack. I imagine the Twins players are just responding to a line of questioning (reporters looking for a story...), rather than voicing their own feelings about the unwritten rules of baseball. I think it's a non-story.
  21. I've actually started watching Longmire, which I've enjoyed quite a bit.
  22. After the initial seasons of Jessica Jones and Daredevil, the whole endeavor felt rushed; the writing, characterization just wasn't there. I couldn't make it very far into Daredevil season 2, and haven't tried the others, though I've been considering giving JJ S2 a chance.
