    One of which areas? A weakness or a strength?
  2. Squirrel
    I don't know much about his illness or what treatments he has to do (if any) to keep it at bay. However, the physicality between being a manager and a player are not at all comparable. And it is probably that difference that makes his disease manageable in this role vs the physical rigors of a playing role. But ... as much as you ... I don't know; given his history, I'm sure it was addressed in the process to hire him.
  3. Squirrel
    Um, can't say I agree. I am MORE likely to buy tickets because they fired Molitor and hired Baldelli. I was disappointed that they gave Molitor a 3-yr contract last Fall. This is the kind of move they should have made earlier.

    I knew that place well ... you a Winonan?

    The acting is good. I like the aspect of telling the story back in time and telling the story in the present, it's 2 for 1, but also necessary to show what was to show what is. The present-day family drama is very well acted and I was very drawn in ... it felt like I was watching live theatre in some ways ... even on my little iPad because I can't figure out how to get my internet to work on my television. I also liked how the first 5 episodes were kind of spent on each child/adult couterpart and their story, kind of. There were things at the very end ... which pointed out some clues that I missed, that everyone missed, will miss, throughout the episodes. I don't know how they'll have more seasons, though, as I think these 10 episodes truly completed the story, for all of them. And yeah ... the casting was amazing ... even Henry Thomas/Timothy Hutton worked.
  6. Squirrel
    Okay ... the off-season gets off to a good start, imo.
  7. Squirrel
    Okay, finished ... glad I powered through all the scary stuff to get to the end.

    I was going to not post for a week and have you all wondering ... I think I saw a movie version of this years ago. This is the kind of scary, horror stuff I like even though it scares me. Slasher films, however, I do NOT like and won't watch. No Freddie Kruger or Mike Myers or the like for me.
  9. Squirrel
    That is ... if I sleep.
  10. Squirrel
    And I'm sleeping with the lights on tonight. It floats between creepy, scary stuff and good family drama, like I'm watching live theatre ... but i'm still sleeping with the lights on tonight and I'm not coming out from under the covers. ****. I shouldn't watch this stuff but I can't seem to turn it off.
  11. Squirrel
    Okay ... episode 5 ... this thing is REALLY scary. Nightmare time.
  12. Squirrel
    Okay, started watching this. This is scary.
  13. Squirrel
    What series do you all watch on Netflix? I’m not into ... historical/period epic type stuff, for lack of a better way to describe it ... but curious what you all just ‘can’t miss.’
  14. Squirrel
    Pffft. Be quicker next time, old man.
  15. Squirrel
    Oh bah, humbug! Harrrumph!
  16. Squirrel
    This thread is about discussing potential candidates. Twins spending, calling the owners cheap and bringing up contraction is off topic. Period. Knock it off. If you want to mention specific candidates and the odds of them wanting to come here because of specific financial information that you are aware of that would not being appealing to them, that is relevant, but this tired, old, generalization of who would want to come here because the owners are cheap is not going to fly.
  17. Squirrel
    There's a couple in there I would seriously consider.
  18. Squirrel
    And let's not project things and carry on a different discussion. This is a discussion on the search for a new manager. Let's keep these side tangents out of it.
  19. Squirrel
    I wish those numbers were switched and we were seriously looking for an upgrade at SS.
  20. Squirrel
    Exactly. Esco back on the team would be great in that role and he'd get a good amount of playing time all over the IF, probably more than a traditional back-up/utility.
  21. Squirrel
    Yes!!! I'm way on board with this!!!
  22. Squirrel
    So would RiverPositionalFlexibilityBrian.
  23. Squirrel
    This times 100. Also imo. I also agree with others that he needs to move to 2nd and we need to acquire a better SS. Maybe even one who could move to 3rd when Lewis or Javier are ready to take over SS. (I didn’t say it.)
  24. Squirrel
    That's a good question without a good answer. I'd be tempted to move Astudillo as the back-up and Garver as another super utility playing OF(RF)/1B/DH/C. But ... not sure ...
  25. Squirrel
    Yeah ... I know who you are and where to find you ... so your anonymity is lost on me. So ... back to my initial retort ... I'm watching!
