The northeastern province of Buriram has become the first province in Thailand to mandate COVID-19 vaccination for all individuals aged 18 and older, with possible penalties as high as two years in prison and a maximum of 60,000 Baht. Buriram Governor Thatchakorn Hatthathayakul urged every individual, aged 18 or more, living or working in Buriram, to submit their COVID-19 risk assessment form and apply for vaccination through the publicly available channels by May 31st. The channels include door-to-door approach by public health volunteers, online registration or personal visits to hospitals or health offices in the province. Failure to apply by May 31st is liable to one month in prison and/or a fine of 10,000 Baht. "Anutin (Thai health minister) backed Buriram for making Covid vaccines compulsory for high-risk groups with a fine of up to 40,000 baht and a jail term of up to two years." https://twitter.com/erich_parpart/status/1393146410342649861 Ironically, Thailand only has limited amounts of AstroZeneca (clotting concerns, as well as over women under 45 and pregnancies), Sinovac and Sputnik...which everyone is wary of for varying reasons. No access to US vaccines, even in private hospitals. Imagines how Greg would protest against this...and the further irony of jailing anyone pretty much ensures at-risk individuals will really get sick due to overcrowded Thai prison conditions.

Just as funny as when we add Pujols, Matt Adams or Allen Craig because they’re former Cardinales...

Hitting too well recently...need to cool him off? Playing for August, brother.

But Collins had a double...so he must automatically play, I guess. Of course, by that theory, you don’t mess with a winning combination and you leave Hamilton out in CF until he slumps tremendously.

Tauchman leading off for SFG but only an OPS of 614, which still looks quite good compared to Leury’s numbers.

Are we attempting to embarrass the Indians’ owner into spending more than $50 million on a first place team in the middle of May...somehow force them to add instead of subtract?

Madrigal all the way down to a 696 ops and still inconsistent defense...

Okay, at least we are sort of back in this one...and the Royals’ pen is far from impregnable. Definitely will get Staumont relatively soon.

Grandal going to get tossed...

Great hitting continues for Mercedes...just no 4-6-3 GIDP Yasmani.

Al Leiter? The Vandy son?

Surely, it will be a much higher quality OFer than anyone can possibly imagine...

Ummm...they need to protect Kopech’s innings and pitch count this season. What value does he have pitching like this?

Then you’re going to have even more pitchers with season-ending injuries...workload just wasn’t there last season. Why not two All Star games, too, like they used to have?

Can we not have this un-winnable fight? Nobody will ever change their minds.

Just put Eaton the DL. He’s just not right, physically. Or move him down, put Vaughn or Mercedes or Madrigal there...of course, bottom of lineup becomes even uglier as a consequence.

Yankees might not agree. But then it gets blamed on them choosing far less efficacious single dose J&J over Pfizer/Moderna.

Crazy the Indians could have sole possession of first place after tonight...with how well the Sox have been playing. Cleveland isn’t destroying anyone, but they absolutely have a knack for winning close games.

Well, you can probably forget about Giolito ever getting an extension. Perez absolutely kills the White Sox.

I want Hamilton out there...not Leury. LGINAA.

Then they almost have to get another outfielder, with Vaughn to first...please, no Yermin there. Grandal and Collins, too, but have a feeling Collins numbers will nosedive with regular playing time. Thinking 3-4 days with Abreu...

Pretty crazy after all this time that Leury can’t manage even a 500 ops...almost makes Brian Anderson look like Torii Hunter.

Well, probably would take him over Keuchel still if forced to choose one...much better K ratio.

Of course. That’s what happens as we get closer to summertime at GRF.
