ok, but if there is no season....does the LT get reset for the Sox? or will all contracts etc be put "on hold" and we will need to reset in 2021?

In. i have a board meeting tonight so will put this on my Tuesday night watch list.

your idea...you pick the first movie.

yup. it doesnt help when the person supposed to be leading us constantly gives conflicting information. 1/2 the citizens believe there is a beautiful vaccine about to emerge (even though we cant even give citizens an actual test for the virus).....

first world problems.

whatever the outcome of this season is....our f***ing LT better be reset for the 2021 season.

Right. This is the realistic view of 2020 thread. The reality for 2020 is COVID 19.

if the season is cancelled....our LT is still reset, right?????

i think it is transmitted fairly easily in close quarters. the 14 guys from Cali that went to Italy all have it. it's not like only 2 or 3 of them contracted it. they all did. and the outbreak in New Ro was from a gathering at a synagogue.

hahaha. nope, i'm in the office. i'm worried about you old farts down in florida. this virus is culling the elderly and sickly.

the average lifespan of a major league baseball is 2 pitches. hopefully the guy rubbing up the balls with mississippi mud prior to the games isnt infected.

they should just move up the end of current CBA to now and have this be the strike season while they haggle over LT limits / drug testing / salaries / pensions..... turn the lemons into something something....

hope you both are OK harmony. i think the mariners home opener is going to swap down to TX.

we learned last year that beni cannot handle leadoff.

it's gonna be a long season....

should have traded him last season!

as 5GG would say.....it's been 6 months....WTF is 10 more days gonna do????

The Boston Red Sox are still waiting for Major League Baseball's punishment for allegedly stealing signs electronically, and that announcement may be pushed back even further as the league will focus its efforts on preparations for the coronavirus outbreak. "Coronavirus response is taking precedent for now," Jon Heyman of MLB Network tweeted. "So Red Sox result may be delayed a bit more."

Erod with 180 pitches will get us thru the 5th.

thanks for the update OT. we had 70F and sunny here in Jersey yesterday so it feels like baseball season.

this could get ugly quick. or be an amazing season. who knows!

i am forever hopeful.

nope. cannot flip-flop the pitcher prior to the 3 batter minimum. good call Bell: The starting pitcher or any substitute pitcher is required to pitch to a minimum of three consecutive batters, including the batter then at bat (or any substitute batter), until such batters are put out or reach first base, or until the offensive team is put out, unless the starting pitcher or substitute pitcher sustains injury or illness which, in the umpire-in-chief’s judgment, incapacitates him from further play as a pitcher. Comments: To qualify as one of three consecutive batters, the batter must complete his plate appearance, which ends only when the batter is put out or becomes a runner. If the offensive team is put out prior to any substitute pitcher completing his first three consecutive batters, the pitcher may be removed from the game between innings; but, if he returns for the subsequent inning, he must complete pitching to as many batters as necessary to satisfy the three consecutive batters requirement, which total would include any batters that completed a plate appearance with that pitcher the prior inning (i.e., if he completed 0 PA in inning 1, he must complete 3 PA in inning 2; if he completed 1 PA in inning 1, he must complete 2 PA in inning 2; if he completed 2 PA in inning 1, he must complete 1 PA in inning 2). An intentional walk counts toward fulfilling the number of required batters. Picking off a runner does not fulfill the minimum batter requirement, but would permit the early removal of the pitcher if the out recorded by the pickoff ends the inning.

definitely...definitely the way i would want to get on the IL.

well done. +2 points.
