2020 MLB Draft Thread
Sounds like a huntington draft but I guess that's probably most of the scouts at this point.

No Kelley even in first round? School at that point?

I don’t think her fans liked her because they thought she was anti establishment.

If he’s Jose Abreu and signed for 64 million less that is a very good outcome. There is a lot of room beneath cespedes and Robert whole still being worth a few mill- COVID-19/Coronavirus thread
They are also typically partitioned so the exposure is likely contained to the court itself- 2019-2020 Official NBA Thread
I'd wait until the next season begins before making this judgment.- COVID-19/Coronavirus thread
These things are all very unlikely. Worst issue is the group getting together to talk at midcourt. Surface transmission continues to see very low reports, I think outdoor tennis is good. As caulfield said, main concern is air conditioning flow indoors. They are certainly way more spread out than an indoor exercise class, with max of 4 players over a huge space. But the heavy breathing is a concern. We will see but I'd tend to believe it's not that terrible to reopen.- COVID-19/Coronavirus thread
What a day! 29300 tests 2268 positive cases 7.7% positive rate, a new low. 100 fewer people on ventilators than last week, hospitalization declining.- COVID-19/Coronavirus thread
but yes restaurants/night clubs/entertainment do not have much of a lobbying group and it has led to them getting short shrifted despite being the most affected, and forcefully limited, by governments. Throw money at them.- COVID-19/Coronavirus thread
I think outdoor is going to be fine. Moving forward indoor is going to be difficult as the air conditioning really does seem to cause issues. I wouldn't advise going with company as much but going with family you live with it should be nice.- 2019-2020 Official NBA Thread
This is ah-mazing. I love every part of this story.- 2019-2020 Official NBA Thread

Good day in IL for testing and cases, bad day for deaths. First day under 20k in a while, but 18k+ tests reported and 1545 cases for a 8.5% positive rate.- 2019-2020 Official NBA Thread
I apparently saw Jordan play in old chicago stadium, and I don't remember it at all. A happy memory for my dad. We started going to a lot of games during the rebuild (khalid el-amiiiiinnnn)and that's when I started really getting into basketball in the type of fandom I have today. Going to games live is so important for really starting to get into sports as a kid. Can't wait until it can happen again- 2019-2020 Official NBA Thread
It was great, glad it was made. I was too young to appreciate what it meant because it started as my earliest memories. I had no perspective how crazy it was to have the hometown team be a global phenomenon. I remember being confused when in tv shows "jordan coming to town" was something they were excited for rather than dreading. I can't believe they didn't do the Rodman mcdonalds cups though. That was so, so important to me.- 2020 MLB Draft Thread
I wouldn't consider this floating. If you take kelley you probably get a deal, but I would hope they don't pick him to get a deal. I don't feel confident saying any one player will make it to 47, but when I see an expensive college pitcher at 47 I'd guess it's a play on van eyk, burns or mlodzinski falling. I could just as easily him in the teens, but it's a mock draft, so I'll go with the pitcher I like most.- 2020 MLB Draft Thread
Well it's above slot. I've seen him and Van Eyk all over the place though, yeah I guess I would put the money on college pitching rising all things considered.- 2020 MLB Draft Thread
I am going to try and guess that you went kelley / mlodzinski- COVID-19/Coronavirus thread

Tests have been broadened significantly, while some places still require symptoms, many allow testing if you believe to be exposed. But yes it's positive daily tests/total daily tests- COVID-19/Coronavirus thread
Meh day reporting wise in IL. but it’s top level certainly seems down. 21300 tests. 2300 positive. (Roughly) 11%- COVID-19/Coronavirus thread
Calling for the government to scale things up is the opposite of perfect hindsight. Your incredulousness that the US should "take government factories" and "start producing testing immediately" is funny since that is quite literally what they are supposed to do! Despite it being a new virus it is exactly what many other smaller and less equipped governments were capable of doing. - Oscar Colas
