Ken Starr, immediately after being fired for his role in the coverup of sexual abuse at Baylor: I should reach out to convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein

this happened! this is a thing that happened!

seems like a lot of effort just to protect bill clinton tbh

Why do you think one Justice asked for counter briefing? I realize it only takes one, but they don’t ask for it as a matter of course either.

Did someone just want to make Davis pay even more to lose?

He was. That’s the point. They had multiple parts of the movie that had to tell you his character was supposed to be because the baseline was already Hollywood.

There is a reverse of this when they cast someone to be attractive and have to tell the audience because the baseline is Hollywood makes it so you can’t just show it.

Paul Walker in The Fast and the Furious is a great example.

You either live long enough to be a Montresur or die a Fortunato. Godspeed.

Sometimes I see people like 20 tweets deep into an argument with Grok. Like, what are you doing brother? You are trying to win an argument with a vending machine.

His floor is obviously quite a bit lower. You hope he gets his SO% under control and maintains the same power. I suspect his likely ceiling is Gallo, with a lotto ticket at higher. It depends on how much he can maintain a walk rate with better pitching.

You can make quite a career as a Gallo though

I hate this. But I think you're right. Padres could be a fit too.

Maybe. But Muncy was a good 1B and reasonably 2B. He was unfamiliar w/ 3B. I'm not sure you're working with the same quality materials w/ Murakami.

His SO% is worrisome, as that probably increases. Upside is incredibly high. But his ceiling might be Adam Dunn or Gallo. Is that worth the floor?

Yeah, I think that's exactly what happens with him. Can't with LA for obvious reasons.

I have to think the Yankees short porch is yearning for him. But they don't really have DH open right now either.

Are you ready to move on from Freddie in a year? I'm not sure I am.
