• What is falling in place with Will Venable is a number of fat confluences: the impact of David Sandlin, the arrival of Monster Edgar Quero, the return to health of Sean Burke (case of vertigo) and Davis Martin (kneecap) and the puma-like intensity of Andrew Benintendi, which has allowed Chris Getz to do the opposite of a garage sale where to get rid of all parts alongside a used cockroaches.
