740 new cases today in Iowa, 8 deaths. The 740 is a high for Iowa, on the day 77% of the state relaxes limitations. No clue what percentage of total tests were positive, though its claimed they were at places they expected high numbers. This state's leadership continues to show to be unprepared, but, hey, at least we partnered with some testing system the governor heard about from Ashton Kutcher. Today's press conference featured a speaker from a conservative, religious PAC in the state as well. Reynolds had the sixth lowest approval of covid handling of any governor (still at 54%), and a lot of people are confused as to what exactly we are doing here.

I wonder if those tend to be poorer people or POC....

I agree, though I'll take the team that went 110-64

In 75 career postseason plate appearances, Carl Everett never had an extra base hit.

September 9: Dodgers 8, White Sox 0. Clayton Kershaw left due to an undisclosed injury in the 5th. Cody Bellinger hit home run 56. Lucas Giolito lasted five outs and gave up six runs. Tim Anderson went 2-3. The Sox are officially eliminated from the playoffs. 58-87 September 10: Dodgers 6, White Sox 5. The Sox actually maintained a 5-2 lead in this one, with Tyler Johnson pitching a scoreless first as the opener, and Gio Gonzalez pinballing his way into the eighth inning (6.1 IP, 6 H, 5 R, 2 BB, 5 K), but Zack Burdi would be stuck with the loss after allowing Max Muncy's 34th home run of the year. Cody Bellinger hit number 57 earlier in the game. The Sox got home runs from Nomar Mazara (18) and Yasmani Grandal (17). The Dodgers found out Clayton Kershaw tore a ligament in his elbow and would be out 8-9 months. 58-88 September 11: Rainout. September 12: White Sox 1, Royals 0; Royals 8, White Sox 4. Dylan Cease was masterful while picking up his tenth win in game one (6 IP, 4 H, 0 ER, 2 BB, 10 K) and a Brian Dozier home run (12) in the third was all he needed. The Sox pitching was not near as sharp in game two as Carlos Rodon's return from injury had him lasting just 53 pitches (3 IP, 3 H, 5 R, 3 BB, 3 K), while Michael Kopech moved to the bullpen and pitched 3.1 scoreless. Eloy Jimenez hit his 29th and 30th home runs of the year, knocking in three. A Nomar Mazara solo shot (19) accounted for the other Sox run. 59-89 September 13: Royals 11, White Sox 7. The Sox continue playing out the string. Dallas Keuchel was decent (5.1 IP, 8 H, 3 R, 2 BB, 4 K), but Bennett Sousa, Zack Burdi, Ian Hamilton and Aaron Bummer managed to give up 8 runs over four innings to make sure the Sox didn't have a chance. The Sox got a 3-4 performance out of Yoan Moncada, while Yasmani Grandal his his 18th dong of the year. 59-90 September 14: Athletics 6, White Sox 4. Lucas Giolito struck out 11 over 5.1 IP, but he also gave up six runs, which really hurt his chances in this one. Eloy Jimenez his his 31st dong, while Yoan Moncada had another multi hit game (2-3, R, RBI). Michael Kopech struck out two in a scoreless inning of relief. 59-91 September 15: Athletics 6, White Sox 0. Eloy Jimenez and Nomar Mazara had the two hits in this one for the Sox. Both were singles. Chris Bassitt struck out 10 over 8 innings, allowing one hit. 59-92

greg can just move to iowa, the more the merrier at church

Iowa is back open for business, b****es. Well, 77% of it. I assume there's no travel between counties in the state. I don't think Reynolds leadership has been well received at this time. I think there's people that want to reopen, but have no clue what in the world she is trying to do. The state's response to everything has been all over the place.

Naturally, Iowa is working on announcements to open back up today.

You guys may as well trade for Malik Hooker from Indy, sounds like we want to move him.

Another record for cases in Iowa

good call

okay, i cracked up at roger in the easy chair for the pats pick

Raiders get Lynn Bowden; excited to see how hes used

almost drunk enough for the colts to draft eason

Hurts to Philly

old tweets exposed

Yup, Doyle is TE1, and Mo Alie-Cox is going to play as well.

Also, should I like Trey Burton as a TE2/3?

The Colts should be able to run the ball pretty well between him and Mack and a top OL.

Kmet to the Bears. Seeing them in person, I liked Claypool more as a pro, but I digress

Whoa. Jonathan Taylor
