Do you f*ck with electronic music much? Saw Jamie xx recently and it's got me into a run with some other DJs: Takuya Nakamura, Four Tet, etc.

It's song by song. I've loved some Jamie xx stuff ("Loud Places", "See Saw") but the latest album left me cold.

Do you have a best cheesesteak list ?
Keith Law

I don't eat cow, sorry.

My wife would tell you Jim's on South St is the best. She's a native to the area.

Do you not think the 3 time batting average champ deserves to hit in the 2 spot? Everyone in San Diego seems to want him moved either to the 9 spot or out of the lineup

No, I do not think that that makes someone the best fit for the 2 spot. Arraez has a .316 OBP this year. Putting all of those outs in the 2 spot would be irresponsible.

Since when do you not eat cow?

Over 7 years now.

thoughts on Kjerstad - obviosuly his career isnt over by any stretch but is there any legit hope of him still being a 20+ hr .260 hitting .800 OPS type player?
Keith Law

I'm inclined to say no, unfortunately, but I would at least like to see him get a chance somewhere else. I didn't love the pick at the time, but he did show more than enough in the minors to make me think he could be a regular with the sort of power you describe.

Respectfully to Ben, Brexit has not much to do with us. Our country's size in population and geography means we will always have differences, but these are differences that are killing people and destroying families. And no matter what side of the aisle you are on, defunding medical research will kill someone you love or you whether you realize it or not.

The problem I see there is that we're not really that split blue state/red state. We've disenfranchised huge swaths of the populations of red states, and splitting the country just leaves tens of millions of people who don't support the hate and violence and anti-science preached by one party under a sort of gerrymander-powered minority rule.

Are we resigned to expansion (probably inevitable) and geographic realignment (please a thousand times no) or is this just a leverage ploy for new stadiums in certain MLB cities?
Keith Law
3:05
Both. There will be further extortion, and we will get to 32 teams before I retire.

Who's the best choice for Dem nominee if you had to pick? Wes Moore, perhaps?
Keith Law

I don't know enough about the possible candidates for that to say. I just don't think throwing away the rights of one vulnerable minority is the way to mount a viable opposition to Trump running for a third term (do not dismiss this possibility) or to whatever stooge they nominate to replace him. You don't beat the "nobody has rights but straight white men" party with a platform of "some people have rights too." Everyone matters, every race, every gender, every orientation, every religion or non-religion, everybody. You can't fight exclusion with selective exclusion. You fight it by being the party of equal rights for everyone, period.

That's all for today - thanks so much for reading and for all of the questions. I'm hoping to get to a game in the next couple of days and will have a new scouting notebook from there. Go call your reps and senators and make your voices heard.
