  1. Thanks to all of the US covidiocy Toronto has yet to designate a home ballpark. Canada has closed borders with the US and has not agreed to admit visiting ballplayers. It is not clear if they will. Since Florida is a hot mess that leaves Buffalo as a likely fallback. It also raises questions about teams traveling to FL or TX hotspots. The players may think twice about playing games there. That could put four more teams into a homeless situation. The border situation provides rich irony over US visitation politics.
  2. I was testing people before anybody knew there was testing. We actually have states that want to force people back to work but no masks allowed. We share a country with these people. Wonder if guns will help.
  3. We got what we voted for when it comes to health and human services. I did not expect the opposition to get away with such overt evil-doing.
  4. I expect the Sox to make a statement on Opening Day recognizing BLM. It would be appropriate. Maybe the alternate anthem for starters.
  5. Good to know that cities like Atlanta are forbidden by state law to mandate masks. Kemp has been surrounded by corruption.
  6. I remember Hit Me Baby One More Time on the radio broadcasts. Jon Garland debuted mid-season at 4-8 6.46 ERA.
  7. It's Pangola College. You won the prize for catching that teaser.
  8. At some initial point there has to be a distinction between a public injury and the medical treatment. There is an irony over all the privacy concern given we have so little privacy. I use a military defense site that is so strict I would rather not bother. Put online privacy in there with Covid and civil justice which gives us three major examples of humans being toxic to each other. Cespedes was a series of rumors and there could have been a violation imo. Tracking it down would be difficult. The players have the right to keep their diagnosis private.
  9. Southpaw has not reported to camp.
  10. Mike Trout status still uncertain. His domestic partner is expecting. I suppose they would be separated.
  11. Vanessa is AA and I am sure he must be suffering from that white guilt syndrome we read about. Dealing with CV can be exhausting as well. He will be back. Ian Desmond had a hard time too.
  12. RHP Brandon Jenkins pitched for Seattle U and Campbell U after a stellar NJ prep career. He shared #35 with Frank Thomas. He was still growing in college and figures to be a competent minor league RP. He got his fastball up to 96 from 91and features a tight slider and fading changeup. His coach calls him one of the best arms on the west coast. I have him down for the 2021 Tommy John award honorable mention.
  13. I enjoyed The Exorcist but ghosts in the cornfields does not inspire me.
  14. Duke Ellis is an OF from Naugadooches TX. He toiled for UTA and Pangolin College. Jesus is not on his resume. No mention of relatives.
  15. The owners of the property were a Southside Chicago couple who wanted to make an amateur facility that locals were opposed to. The current project is temporary. The wife ran the company but passed away.
  16. Sox v Reds would be fun or maybe funny. Game on.
  17. Biggest scandal in eight years, more so because of the cover-up. ?
  18. They do not want to schedule more games. Too risky.
  19. There is no good solution right now but plenty of fools who won't respect us enough to wear masks. Deal with it and be grateful you live in such a free country.
  20. Wondering if they considered upgrading the Armour Square field for extra space.
  21. League rule no travel for TV crews. They would work at the studio for road games.
