    in the state of Wi, schools close on Wednesday until April 1.

    I work in a giant corporate office and we’re all waiting for “we’re closing the office, you need to work from home for the next month”... but going into the office every day. I suggest watching the 87 series, it was awesome! I really like running, it allows me to keep my social distance from everyone and no one tells me I’m antisocial. I am currently training for the 10 mile Hot Dash, but I’m thinking of not going...

    fingers crossed on leave pay for you

    if they hadn’t suspended trading this morning your option would have enacted. It may yet later today... close to $30 loss in 19 days

    my company has Microsoft Teams... so MSFT might be a good one too My kids elementary school just floated doing school via zoom because of that stupid a-hole from Osceola.... Zoom/slack and funeral homes look like good buys. Too bad I don’t have more cash on hand right now...

    looking at the proximity of which athletes are held in, I don’t see how fan-free games are a solution for game play. Fan-free baseball is the best public health measure (so we can all watch from our bunkers) but the proximity to which the players locker/dress, there’s no way to protect the players from each other, unless you quarantine two teams inside a baseball field and never move. Subjecting 26 players to airports 80 times dooms them to the virus. One player in the clubhouse....

    how do you know we’re all adults?
  8. Richie the Rally Goat
    good article! Thanks for sharing. I like the non-foul-ball strikes metric! My fear is Maeda will gain a ton of benefit with Buxton roaming CF and Kepler in RF... then go right in the toilet with an extended period of Jake Cave in the OF....

    I’m waiting for my employee stock options to recalibrate at month end and then start exercising. I need to hold on to my cash for a while...
  10. Richie the Rally Goat
    Very good OP! Agreed, Buxton is critical for this 2020 season. If he could get into the first standard of deviation on fastball whiff rate, that would be icing on the cake!
  11. Richie the Rally Goat
    I wonder if it hurts
  12. Richie the Rally Goat
    how often do you hear of the underling or book keeper getting a slap on the wrist so that they will provide information that convicts the mafia crime boss? At least I see it in the movies... there’s gotta be something there. Look, if you want to adjudicate this as a fan, stop buying tickets. Stop clicking web pages. Separate yourself from Major League Baseball. I’m not happy about what happened with the team. The MLB should have blown that up. The players were absolutely complicit in that, but “took the plea deal”. It’s not the players fault that the jury was rigged. I’m willing to give MLB another shot, even with the stain.

    I don’t know if I subscribe to the “drawing the young crowd” narrative.... but more interesting makes a better case for more viewers than less interesting. Maybe it’s a player from the home team.... or the National game of the week. I want to hear Eddie Rosario mic’d. I think he’d be a hoot
  14. Richie the Rally Goat
    mod note, you too - quit the bickering
  15. Richie the Rally Goat
    mod note quit the bickering

    I really enjoyed the Freeman mic’d up bit. I’d like to see more of that. Similarly, I like it when the hitters walk up to the headset at the end of the dugout. I think it’s possible to phase this type of thing in to regular season play, maybe one player on the Sunday day games... You’d have to be really careful about integrity rules and such. The broadcast booth has a perspective on the game and binoculars to see the catchers calls. I’m sure there wouldn’t be intentional cheating, but joking around like that can get carried away quickly. Overall though, very enjoyable.

    To continue... https://mobile.twitter.com/LizSpecht/status/1236095181633376257 1m hospital beds in the US and approximately 5m cases in the US by May 5 at exponential growth rate. Yowza!

    I think Chacon would have to show something in the way of ability to regain said form for him to get the nod over Dobnak
  19. Richie the Rally Goat
    With the volatility of the market, that’s a nice value. A cruddy week for the Dow based on all this Coronavirus fear could drop it in your option range.
  20. Richie the Rally Goat
    This article puts a pretty good estimate on your revenue question of the masks to 3M. https://investorplace.com/2020/03/buy-mmm-stock-not-coronavirus/

    maybe a little. I mean this is a big deal and I’m mad at him too, but jeez... if you’re gonna ban everyone who breaks the rules of a competitive sport, your gonna run out of players. I bet there was some difficult conversations in that clubhouse. But when they’re done ya gotta move on (from a clubhouse/player perspective) That’s not to say I’d extend Marwin. I wouldn’t. Poor judgement plus declining play is not a recipe for extension. As players like Gordon or Blankenhorn start to push for big league playing time, it’ll be at the expense of Marwin. But I wouldn’t eat the last year of his contract out of spite.

    Comps are a nice way to relate to a player and put some context to their projections. Oh and Cruz comps to Joe Adcock and Roy Sievers. https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/c/cruzne02.shtml
  23. Richie the Rally Goat
    Ha ha!
  24. Richie the Rally Goat
    the backside of that thing must have a dozen ports. Setups for foot pedals and joy sticks are available. Cool stuff

    it’s 100 miles, he could almost live at home and commute
