while we're doing literary takes today: the sentences that kindle underlines as frequently highlighted by readers are usually the most banal insights on the page

while i'm on the subject of baseball, i got a jeremy affeldt–style injury the other day. i took too much melatonin and used my 25 pound weighted blanket for the first time in months and woke up totally injured. i was injured by a weighted blanket. straight to the IL.

a dichotomy we will never be able to explain to future generations. as a former giants fan, the entire 2010-2014 run will be impossible to explain to future generations.

As a dodger fan it pains me to admit that Madison Bumgarner was that fuckin dude in the playoffs that Kershaw never was

it's been an incredible, amazing privilege to watch kershaw's entire career. it's also time to stop blaming his october numbers on pedro baez. it just is what it is.

clayton kershaw postseason stats
196.1 IP
40 G
4.63 ERA
3.98 FIP
1.146 WHIP

Me and @markkrotov.bsky.social wrote about Laszlo Krasznahorkai and the Nobel Prize in Literature newrepublic.com/article/2015...

The Nobel Prize in Literature Is Boring Now

László Krasznahorkai, who was awarded the Prize on Thursday, is a brilliant novelist and consummate laureate. But has the Swedish Academy lost its sense of fun?
