If the US was actually testing a lot, you could point to the KBO of something that had restrictions but looks like the season will mostly go as planned. but with the US flying in the dark who knows

Between the injuries and global pandemic, I’m not sure we had a real chance to accurately judge Boylens coaching and he should return next year. - John Paxson somewhere

Let’s give Tom hanks that credit.

So here’s the thing - a vast majority of people who get this will not need to go to a doctor in their recovery. But a good percentage are. This virus appears to be very contagious. The bigger the spread, the more that smaller percentage of people needing hospitalization becomes an actual larger number. if that happens too quickly, there is not enough capacity in our hospitals to help them. That’s what happened in Italy, that’s what happened in Wuhan. So a whole bunch of people died because they could not get the medical attention needed because capacity was overwhelmed. Rudy Gobert will be fine. But his idiocy means a whole number more people may get it, and increase the likelihood of a surge. And yeah, I hope if I get in a car crash at the same time I can get medical treatment because there are hospital beds.

Mizzou just did as well. Many of friends companies now officially wfh. All conferences have canceled. St Patrick’s day parade was canceled. My Church Is online next 3 weeks The idea that only the affected cities are doing anything is asinine. Didn’t even mention the NCAA tourney eliminating fans from live events.

seems like things hit a huge turning point in last day.

I believe the WHO report from China placed 2 weeks incubation at the high end, but the median was 5 days for symptoms to appear.

I thought the angels were trending up, but looks like it's still Addell and nothing.

caulfield if you want to talk about how baseball is set to react talk about that. But don't just turn this into another corona thread, there already is one.

Greece seems like it has geographical advantages there.

Lombardy region in Italy.

I think South Korea and Hong Kong show that Lombardy should not need to happen if you get tests up and running which it is just absurd it has now made such little progress 6 weeks now into this being a distinct threat. South Korea has now seen a 4-day drop. The test and isolate can scale quite well if you can get to it before the capacity-issues facing Lombardy. So, no, I don't think the US should shut itself down, but reasonable restrictions like mass rallies, schools, and sporting events when cities are in a growth phase need to happen. The gov't could counteract quite a bit of that through fiscal measures.

Respiration is incredibly important to keeping afflicted people alive. Including for the worst cases oxygenation directly into blood cells.

Hire Kenny Atkinson

Detmers would be the perfect fit to me, but feels like that’s a smaller shot.

Lost it in the seventh with two outs on a wild pitch

Very true.

Right, especially when our pitching staff has so many young players, having two catchers that know what they are talking about is helpful.

I do think it sucks for him personality that in his FA year, one year after he gives you an all-star season for pennies, to put him in a serious backup position. I don't want to trade him and I don't think the value we'll get will exceed his value, but it does suck, especially a clubhouse where everyone is getting locked up.

This draft is loaded with arms but they are college arms. Not a particularly strong prep arm draft, lots of short right handers.

Maybe more like Trea Turners 7.5 settlement.

So the argument is that Moncada will be underpaid if he wins MVP this year...

I'm sure Pippen would not feel that much solidarity over this $100 million deal.

Right. It's a very reasonable deal, I'm just surprised it got done because there was not much urgency to sign one and this isn't a deal so low that you'd say moncada was just clamoring for a deal, or so high that moncada would feel a lot of pressure to sign it. Just a pretty normie deal. Really impressed this got done, happy for the org and for myself that I get to watch my son watch the same awesome players for his first sports years.
