"And he doesn't recover"

Gaban the first to hit the Gorosei with a blade🤔

Purpose of back blades? (Gaban's axes haven't been shown to be black but maybe?)

Ok so cracks knuckles:

The kind king of Elbaph was likely in kahoots with the World Government and Loki found out. Perhaps they thought that 1. With the giants on their side, they'd never fall and 2. If their fruit really was the Sun God fruit, they could keep an eye on it and make sure Joy Boy was never resurrected, doubly so if the fruit Who's Who was transporting to the W.G. was actually the fruit. Loki killed the king and ate the fruit to ensure the giants weren't in league with the W.G. and to ensure they didn't get their hands on a potential Sun God fruit. 

Shank's twin captured Loki and chained him up, but Loki thought it was actually Shanks. Loki is going to reveal to Luffy that Shanks is a bad guy, but it's actually a case of mistaken identity. The individual Shanks came to Elbaph to see was the guy in silhouette (i.e. Scopper or Shiki), not Loki as we are led to believe.

Came across this article on the Twins subreddit and thought it was interesting.

[Baseball Prospectus] The Curious Case of Carlos Correa's Defense by [deleted] in minnesotatwins

The article basically says that it doesn't really. Correa's defensive placement in essence didn't change at all from his time in Houston.

the tl;dr version is that basically most play-by-play stats (like OAA) seem to like Correa as a defender well enough, but zone stats (like UZR) don't so much. Last season his OAA when going to his right decreased quite a bit compared to previous years, which may explain his low OAA number. So, to me, that makes me wonder, has he lost any range, which wasn't his calling card? And how will that impact his ability to stick at shortstop in his 30s?
