2020 MLB Draft Thread
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)

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)

Are the Sox really not going to platoon Mazara in right field?
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.

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

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.- COVID-19/Coronavirus thread

Lombardy region in Italy.- COVID-19/Coronavirus thread
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.- COVID-19/Coronavirus thread
