    Great List! I feel for you on the job front. Hopefully paid leave!

    “1 or 2” top pitchers? How about part of a top pitcher? This has been beaten to death already, but top pitchers don’t just grow on trees. It’s easier said than done, to sign one of these unicorns. I think the FO would rather have signed a top pitcher too.

    testing is important to learn how better to fight it, but how we choose to test is causing a ton of issues. I would have preferred to pattern after Korea, drive thru testing, but everyone gets tested.

    if 50% of Americans contract the virus (top end is 70%) then 2.2 m is 1.3% mortality rate and that seems to be on the low side too, on the range up to 4%.

    agreed with Glunn. It’s pretty safe to say, depending on investment horizon, you’ll pay higher income taxes closer to retirement than you pay right now, so might as well bite the bullet. If your employer offers a Roth 401k, you could make your contributions monthly after taxes on your paycheck. My employer includes the Roth on match funds too, so you could replace your pre tax 401k with the after tax variety, to an extent. Unfortunately the Roth contribution limits are lower than pretax.

    good article!

    Update: working from home now, things change quickly

    It might be time for a second TV

    MMM opened today at 129.86 did your put option vest (or whatever it’s called)?

    https://www.mlb.com/news/opening-of-regular-season-to-be-pushed-back In accordance w/ CDC guidlines of limiting groups of 50 or more for 8 weeks, MLB is pushing back opening day. 8 weeks from now is mid-May. Be Safe everyone and wash your hands -Sconnie

    With the Fed rate cut, it appears with all three major futures indices down to the limit (4.5-4.8%) that the market agrees with you. The uptick was probably just the algorithms...
  13. Richie the Rally Goat
    we have some really unscientific stats flying around with all kinds of self selection bias... it’s the people who aren’t getting tested who spread this around...
  14. Richie the Rally Goat
    mod note: Let’s keep it to OP.
  15. Richie the Rally Goat
    I dont know, it’s an assumption. I also saw in Trevor Bauer’s YouTube channel that the union is negotiating for the players to get paid. A bit further down the thread, I advocated for the games to count if the players get paid for missed games.
  16. Richie the Rally Goat
    peanuts the only thing left on the shelf at BJs?
  17. Richie the Rally Goat
    is it unfair to pick myself? I guess it is, after all Pete Rose... so I pick Diesel for kicking off a most righteous thread
  18. Richie the Rally Goat
    but it’s not based on 162 game season. If it were he wouldn’t have started his penalty immediately because there weren’t 162 games or even 60 games left of the season. if the players union gets the players their game checks for missed games in 2020, then the missed games should count against Pineda’s suspension. Pineda shouldn’t have to pay the monetary penalty twice.
  19. Richie the Rally Goat
    Bauer has some interesting stuff. His YouTube channel. Seems very earnestly concerned about the hourly ballpark people getting paid, hence the sandlot game as a charitable event to support the hourly workers. Good work Trevor!
  20. Richie the Rally Goat
    in the strike shortened season of 95, the players didn’t get paid for the 18 games missed. Neither will the players get paid for missed games this year due to Covid19. Why should Pineda get even partial credit when the other players won’t get paid at all? His suspension was 60 games with 39 games remaining, not 37% of a season with 24% remaining.
  21. Richie the Rally Goat
    agreed, these young men are more than just good ball players and pretty smiles. I really like the ‘get to know ‘em’ articles and it would be great to see more of them as time goes by. Usually they are prospect articles. It would be nice to get a then and now perspective.
  22. Richie the Rally Goat
    Mod note: keep it to the OP in a light hearted post about the players
  23. Richie the Rally Goat
    it is Twins DAILY

    3 solid seasons of nothing but “Caaaarrrl!” I mean I watch tv to escape reality, not relive my own personal hell of repeating my children’s names over and over again... Justified was absolutely fantastic, beginning to end. I’m just getting into Counterpart. Too early to vouch, but it’s starting well. JK Simmons is awesome
  25. Richie the Rally Goat
    I dunno, La Tortuga really looks like a Tortuga... But Dobnak absolutely deserves to be higher ranked. For reference: https://www.fox9.com/video/655771 I believe JP wouldn’t spring for a pro photographer so DSP took everyone’s picture with his iPhone 7.
