And for the final acquisition of the day, the Jays got Whit Merrifield. As recently as a few weeks ago, he missed a series in Toronto due to his vax status Either the Jays’ front office knows something has changed there, or they’re taking a bit of a gamble here They didn’t get those starters from LAA…

I don’t think staying quiet was the plan. They were probably in on guys but didn’t want to meet the asking prices. There was a lot of competition between buying teams, I think. Toronto got a couple relievers from Miami, which will help, and it seems like they’re trying for Iglesias (and maybe Syndergaard too?) from LAA. That would also help. That Soto deal is nuts. Looks like they also got rid of Hosmer to Boston after they couldn’t include him in the Washington deal. edit: An added complication for Toronto is that, due to public health rules in both Canada and the U.S., they basically cannot sign or acquire any non-vaccinated players. They would only be part-time players. So depending who teams want to send in Toronto in trade negotiations, sometimes it just won’t work well for Toronto if they happen to not be vaxxed.

Also, PPPPPP: Saiba

Chisato is rapidly becoming one of my favorite characters (in any show, ever) Her personality is infectious and the voice acting is so good too. Episode

New Choujin X chapter (25) was solid. I am having some struggles remembering what’s going on from chapter to chapter because of the longer gaps between them… but it usually comes back to me after a few pages. Even when it doesn’t, I still enjoy it

Watched the first two episodes of Uncle From Another World, and it’s great so far. Very funny. This man’s commitment to SEGA is something special

Yeah I saw that he’s been working on a new batch of chapters. I’m just getting impatient Sounds like he has pretty terrible back/hip issues, so I should be more mindful of that while I wait impatiently for new chapters...

That's too bad about the author of Ruri Dragon. I haven't gotten around to checking it out yet, but I was going to eventually... Any mention of hiatus invariably reminds of the on-going H×H hiatus. Please come back soon, Togashi??? No new chapters since the end of 2018: Hiatus Chart. It hurts to look at that chart

Yeah I was oblivious I was probably focusing more on the words than the pictures, and reading fast... but even if I had been more attentive, I doubt I would have picked up on a resemblance.

Same. That last page caught me totally by surprise. When it was apparent that there was a school connection, my first guess was that it was Becky’s mum. Wrong!

Earthchild is getting rather silly. End it!

More good stuff in Yurei Deco this week too!

LycoReco is AOTS, I’m calling it now. Episode #4

Akane-banashi #23

Curious to see if Melinda is actually nice or if she turns out to be evil. Feels like a coin flip right now

Interesting development in chapter #65 this week!

I found this week's episode of Overlord to be rather sleep inducing, though I had a long day that day... I have no recollection of what happened. There was a lot of talking. Gimme some more action next week plz

Oh yeah, Earthchild ... it still isn't over yet

I'm with re: PPPPPP, Akane-banashi, and The Elusive Samurai. All have been very good in recent weeks! A bit undecided re: the latest Doron Dororon chapter, but I hope it turns out to be good. Still bummed about Ayashimon Are you caught up on Sakamoto Days? Chainsaw Man #99

Yurei Deco #3 It's good check it out!

This is when you're supposed to be feeling hopeful about the playoffs, not assuming they'll still miss out!

Yeah it’s bad. I made it to the end of the first episode because I had nothing better to do but the premise was dumb. Not worth investing more time into.

LycoReco #3

I find the Mariners’ winning ways to be far more disappointing
