I saw a stat the other day that Trout hasn't really even had a bad week (Monday-Sunday). His worst week this season was still around like an .850 OPS, which would still make him our best player even at his worst.

That is an incredibly misleading cut off mark for stats.
 
If you're going to omit his 131 OPS+ 5 seasons ago, you should also toss out his abysmal 77 OPS+ 4 seasons ago.
 
Average 112 OPS+ the last 3 seasons at Petco. Is he an amazing player? No, but an .800 OPS over the last two seasons at Petco, 28 HRs last year with 28 stolen bases, and currently sitting at 20 HRs this season is not a bad bat to have in the lineup.

Cowart's career OPS over 3,312 PA's in the minors is .736.

Great to hear you're enjoying the new season. If you enjoyed episode 3 of the current season, episode 8 is really something. This season is definitely pure Lynch given free reign, with a hint of Mark Frost giving him some guidance.

After finding out Laura's murderer, I ended up skipping all of the rest of season 2 except the last episode. Then I watched Fire Walk With Me. Now I'm 3 episodes into the new season on Showtime. 
I saw Fire Walk With Me as very much from the same vein as Season 1 and early Season 2. Season 1 was all about how stupid conventional narratives are, so deconstructing a soap opera was the perfect way to get the masses introduced to where Lynch really wanted to go. Fire Walk with Me was where he really got there to me. This new season is phenomenal so far. This feels like it's where Lynch wanted to push the boundaries back in late Season 1/early Season 2, but the network was too restrictive. Showtime has given him the keys this time, and it's special. 

Through episode 8, pretty emphatically no. There's a couple glimmers but its way more in line with Twin Peaks Fire Walk With Me and the final episode of season 2 than it was with the first 15 episodes of the show. Its not to say that there isn't a lot of humor though.

Can't wait for you to get to Season 3, episode 8. Not even sure how I personally feel about this most recent episode, but the fact that something like that can be funded by Showtime is awesome.

Yeah, if you're a fan of Lynch in general, you should enjoy this. If people are just expecting the old Twin Peaks style, it's probably more similar in tone with Fire Walk with Me than a lot of the more sitcom-y style stuff, especially from the 2nd season, but some of that still sneaks it's way in from time to time. Then again, there's only been 4 episodes so far, so it definitely could get sillier.
 
This could very well be the last thing we ever get form David Lynch. He hasn't made anything since Inland Empire and doesn't seem to be interested in making any films anymore. So this could very well be him just going out with a bang and making what he's referring to as an 18-hour film, as he isn't even referring to each episode as an episode but rather as 18 parts.
 
Also, it's very nice to see Gordon Cole back! Also depressing to see characters like the Log Lady, Albert (Miguel Ferrer), Garland Briggs, and Phillip Jeffries (David Bowie), either appear or be referenced to as they've all died since the end of the show and very recently in most of those cases.

Come from ahead losses.

I agree.

Thank you Ben Foster!

I really liked what Simmons had to say about the WBC.
“I can’t predict the future, but I definitely feel more locked in than normal in spring training,” said Simmons, a Curaçao native who played for the Netherlands. “It’s a lot more focused at-bats. A lot more intense. You are are focused (in spring training) but you are not selling out for an at-bat. When you’re trying to win something, you are more focused.”

I don't really understand how someone watching these games isn't having some fun with it. It's far more entertaining than watching Spring Training baseball and very often more fun that Angels regular season baseball the past couple years. Whether or not the absolute best players are participating is beside the point. It's high-level play pretty much all around and all the players are trying their very best to win. It's not an exhibition to them.
