The Big Lead’s PM Sports Roundup, sending you into the weekend with all the latest useless information you may have missed. 

Sansa stars in X-Men: Sophie Turner gave us a sneak peak at her upcoming movie “X-Men: Dark Phoenix.” Oh, and she broke our hearts in regards to the next season of “Game of Thrones.” It almost certainly won’t be released until 2019.

Ohtani to the Angels: Prized Japanese prospect Shohei Ohtani has made his decision. He’ll be playing for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim North of Irvine East of Long Beach. Ohtani finished meeting with teams Tuesday night and announced his decision on Friday instead of dragging things out until the December 22 deadline. I guess the Japanese truly are more efficient at everything.

Cristobal replaces Taggart: After a strong push from the team’s players, Oregon has named Mario Cristobal as its permanent head football coach. I’ve been saying that was the right move for a few days, so I’m always happy to be proven right.
