I'm not sure I find those to be much different than bridgewater...in all honesty

edit: I'm going to delete this, apparently the data sucked too much to draw conclusions from 1918.

If you are shocked by this...I have no idea what league you have been watching.

Aren’t they exempt? I thought it had a grace period

Yes and video conferencing, streaming, etc will be massively larger.

There's nowhere to go now. The speed at which this realization progressed from the NBA on wednesday night, to most schools closing by friday, to people keeping their plans on saturday to then everything shut down in most major cities is incredible. Many probably were holding on but now choice has been rightly taken away. The problem is saturday's idiocy sets us back so much. It will be 2 weeks before we even know how big of a deal that was, then another 2 weeks for those to get better.

Pretty late, like if they couldn't start until after the traditional post ASB type late. If that were the case I'd hope they at least try something fun like a huge WBC like tournament with all teams and the truncated season a seeding play and do away with a world series this year as a season that short to me wouldn't qualify.

I’ve seen nothing to indicate that Japan has introduced particularly strong interventions (school closings aside).

Fucking idiots. All there is to say. Police should literally pick up each bar patron, flip them upside down and shake them, and take all the money to nearby parents and elderly who are bearing the brunt of this.

High school announced it will close thru spring break. likely we’ll hear district elementary schools will follow suit (oak park).

lol

Everytime I want to play by the time the damn system loads up I'm already ready to move on.

so ...maybe more than 2 weeks

I honestly don't know. I assumed it was subscription service gaming? maybe it's PC or something. Anyway, not trying to be flip. Made a lot of adjustments of plans. My mom already had her hours cut and we are supporting and I know that's happening all over country. But when it comes to dealing with the changes it is funny how much of a void is coming with the lack of baseball for me. Like this will be worse than the offseason by 100x, but hopefully those are my thoughts and not actually watching a spiraling health care system.

lol this was my first place I went. I was supposed to go to san fran this weekend, canceled, kept the day off tomorrow. Was going to buy a video game or start this "steam" thing the kids keep telling me about. Ugh dang it I forgot I need a PS4 for baseball. I have to just get my teeth kicked in on OOTP again.

yeah. Let's keep digging until we get to the other side. I say lets unlock and bring back the machado thread. I will need to start crocheting or something.

yeah...otoh i'd rather have a draft team aligned to lots of human scouts this year rather than analytics (assuming they got some looks in on enough guys)

So Kopech doesn't need to be kept down at least?

But a Congressman isn't?

Uh, I mean yes I worry more about my children dying than my dad. I would be in a bubble suit right now if the infant/toddler death rate was 17.5%.

But the point is to slow down the spread to not overwhelm the medical infrastructure. They aren't advocating permanent shut-in, just that we reduce the current trajectory to allow capacity to build up, testing to build up so that it can be handled. This isn't going to cure it. Even a vaccine won't cure it, just make it manageable within society.

So Donovan Mitchell has also tested positive for corona virus (how are NBA players getting tests so easily? A NoVa congressman was denied one)

I mean there aren't that many LHPs it's probably fine.

Do I think they will place most of Mazaras off days against LHP? Yes I do. Do I think they will call this a platoon? No I do not.
