If you told me in late March that this team would be 24-16 through 40 games I would’ve been ecstatic.

I don’t hate this idea.

To be fair, if a critic gives this movie a negative review, they’re probably a terrorist. A card-carrying commie at the very least.

It’s weird that at this point I trust Ward and Marsh more than anyone else to get the job done in clutch spots.

I think Adell has solid promise as a big league hitter. From an eye test standpoint it seems like he's made a lot of strides there from 2020 to now.

he has been haunting us while playing LF

I stopped reading at "The Los Angeles Angels of Orange County of Anaheim of The United States of America". That joke got old 15 years ago, and it wasn't even funny to begin with.

Do you find baseball boring? 
 

I wasn't a believer.   But damn.  Dat dude can hit.  Like Howie Kendrick in the minors hit.  With plate discipline.  I love D, but f it.  put him at second and figure it out.  

This warmed my heart today. Thought I’d share.

True, but they are different. Adell just seems to suck at judging/breaking on fly balls. He has the pure physical ability to play anywhere. He could suck at reacting to grounders and pop ups too though. Who knows?

@True Grich Thanks for the bump. The Savannah Bananas are actually doing a couple exhibition games in KC this weekend. Got tickets for one of them. Looking forward to seeing how it all works in person.

Offensively, you're right. The potential is still there. But it's becoming less and less likely that he'll ever be a competent OFer from a defensive standpoint. I mean if he's still struggling after this much time, he might be beyond helping. His issues are things most major league quality OFers have worked out late in highschool/early on in college/minors.

I've seen this one multiple times, too (for work-related reasons).  Eggers and team definitely created a very "lived-in," realistic-feeling world, but Don, I agree with you: the story didn't do much for me. (Side note: the story that inspired this movie is the same one Shakespeare ripped off when he wrote Hamlet...The lead character's name in The Northman is Amleth...)

I've seen it three times now, including once in IMAX on opening weekend.  The IMAX screening was honestly one of the best theatrical experiences I've had in years.  The theater was packed and the crowd was into the movie the entire time.  They just ate it up.  Wild cheering at times and people openly weeping at a couple points, too.  For all the focus on the action, the multiverse aspects, and the comedy, it has real heart and emotion. 
I expect it to get multiple Oscar nominations next year--and it has a realistic shot at a Best Picture nomination, if not win.
