    Meanwhile, our own Al Sep seems to think Pike is the best Star Trek captain. Ban this fool! Al, you’re just envious of the hair. (Who isn’t?) But there’s a whole episode of his own show about Kirk making the right call in a crucial moment where Pike fails.

    So disillusioned right now….

    I’d probably go with Sisko as my actual favorite captain. (In part because DS9 is my favorite Star Trek show.) It’s more that Pike’s empathetic and generous personality on SNW makes him the best one to get the most out of the crew, and to let them shine as much as he does. TOS and TNG are shows dominated by their top 2-3 characters (Kirk/Spock/McCoy, Picard/Data), with everyone else left to pick up scraps. Of all of them, Pike seems the one best-suited to lead a true ensemble.

    I am now reading the Phantom Tollbooth to my 8 year old and when I realized/remembered/read there is a character in it named Alec Bings I laughed out loud and then moved on quickly rather than explain to my daughter why this was funny

    Spencer Jones is a polarizing prospect. I don’t think it would be worth calling him up for a week. 40 man spots are precious and they can bring him up next July if they want with that K rate.

    Can’t wait to see him in the majors though. Going to be fun and possibly disastrous.

    He’s a guy who may benefit from a robo-ump. Judge too. One thing that might help the K issue.

    .

    He sounds a bit like what I remember of Dave Kingman. Is that a fair comparison?

    Jones is “shockingly fast for his size” according to Fangraphs. Words no one ever used about Kingman. The fact he can play a credible CF at 6’6 and run the bases well is a huge uptick in value from the typical flat footed slugger type.

    He’s as boom or bust as you can get.

    He’s quite old for a prospect though at 24. Which is a reason to call him up I guess.

    ptmilo is somewhere wondering why he suddenly feels a compulsion to write the story of his first experience reading Phantom Tollbooth in the author’s own style.
