  1. He's really good defensively and has more power.  He might K his way out of the league though.  I don't think I'd want to give up on him quite so soon though.  The only thing that gives me hope on his strikeouts are that he takes so many strikes that he shouldn't.  If they can find a way to fix that, it would help a lot.

  2. If they end up with him because they can't trade for anyone better, that's fine.  But they should look for someone better first and not be targeting him from the start.  The last guy Bagwell thought should play first base didn't work out so well.

  3. Career sure, but this year it's not a huge amount.  Pete's not having a very good year. He hits home runs and not much else.  He's better than what the Astros have run out at 1st base this year, but they also might be able to do better.

    aegon definitely survived. just gonna be in traction for a while.

    i think i see where this is all headed despite not having read any of the books but the amusing thing to me about that episode was the fact that there are ravens all over westeros telling people that someone took a dump or that someone had a bad day or whatever...but no one took notice at all on the intel side of things of the apparently largest, most badass dragon on the planet relocated from kings landing to a forest outside of a black holdout castle? springing an ambush camouflaged in a forest when you are a city sized dragon seems like a big leap...particularly when there are other dragons flying above. in the same vein, the notion that said dragon could effectively hide unseen behind a castle mid-dogfight in order to snatch another significantly sized dragon is stupid. i understand they have created a world in which resolving these dragon fights is a challenge but that was idiotic, as was having the other dragon fly at ground level whilst in a fight with the known bully.

    since this is all so obviously headed towards a fight between aegon and daemon mounted on their dragons, in the lore of dragon supremacy, how does daemon's dragon measure up to vhagar?

    If he flew out at night, no one would know where he was going or even that he had left.

  5. We went to Moreno's for lunch today in Austin.  Was very good.  I had a smoked burger and fries that were excellent.  We got a slice of brisket and a pork rib to share and it was really good.  Seems like a nice replacement for Valentina's as they do breakfast tacos and have barbacoa.  Also a good selection of sandwiches.
